The trailer of the upcoming reality series Alliance, hosted by Kunal Kemmu, has been released ahead of its June 26 premiere on Prime Video. The show introduces a high-pressure survival format where contestants compete not just in physical and mental challenges but also in a constant battle of trust and strategy. Produced by Banijay Asia, the series brings together 16 contestants forming eight real-life duos who enter the game as partners but may not remain allies for long.
Set inside a controlled, high-tech facility, the format pushes contestants into a competitive environment where decisions, alliances and betrayals shape the outcome. The show positions itself as a psychological survival game where relationships are as important as performance in tasks, making trust the central currency of the competition.
Format built on trust and betrayal
Alliance follows a structure where pairs compete in a series of challenges including physical tasks, knowledge rounds and secret missions. As the game progresses, alliances are tested and broken, forcing contestants to constantly reassess who they can rely on. The trailer highlights a core theme that loyalty is temporary and strategy is essential for survival.
The series narrows the competition from eight duos down to a single winning pair over 42 episodes, streamed daily. This daily release format is positioned as an experiment in long-form reality storytelling, designed to keep viewers engaged with evolving dynamics between contestants.
The show features a mix of personalities from entertainment, digital content and media industries. Notable pairings include Ravi Kishan with his daughter Riva Kishan, Kushal Tandon with Arsalan Goni, Zaid Darbar with Daisy Shah, and Mini Mathur with DJ Nikhil Chinappa. Other participants include Ruhee Dosani with Niti Taylor, Vanshaj Singh with Dolly Javed, Payal Dhare (Payal Gaming) with Sabby Suri, and Delbar Arya with Armaan Khera. This diverse mix adds unpredictability to the format, as contestants come from different professional backgrounds and levels of experience in competitive environments. The show’s structure relies heavily on how these contrasting personalities adapt to pressure and shifting alliances.
Kunal Kemmu’s hosting debut
Alliance also marks Kunal Kemmu’s debut as a reality show host. According to him, the format stands apart because it blends emotional decision-making with strategic gameplay. He described the experience as intense and unpredictable, noting that the game constantly changes based on relationships and choices made by contestants. With its focus on trust, deception and survival strategy, Alliance aims to offer a different kind of reality entertainment when it begins streaming on June 26 on Prime Video across multiple regions.
