On Tuesday, Prime Video announced June 26 as the premiere date of its upcoming reality series Alliance. Originally created by John De Mol, Alliance is the first international adaptation of Talpa Studios' globally acclaimed Dutch format. Kunal Kemmu will be seen as the host for the series. 

Marking Kunal’s debut as a host, the show will have a format where 16 contestants enter as allies, but shifting loyalties, deception, and strategic gameplay will test every alliance in the race for the ultimate prize. The series will span across six weeks, with 42 episodes in total. 

Nikhil Madhok, director and head of Originals, Prime Video, India, said, “We are delighted to partner with Banijay Asia, yet again to bring this globally successful format to India. The success we have seen with our unscripted slate, including The Traitors India and Two Much with Kajol and Twinkle, reflects the growing appetite for distinctive and unconventional reality content. We are confident that Alliance will continue this momentum and emerge as a compelling addition to the genre."

The reality show is being produced by Banijay Asia. Deepak Dhar, Founder & Group CEO, Banijay Asia, said, "What drew us to the format was its sheer scale. The games are ambitious, cinematic, and unlike anything we've attempted before. But spectacle alone doesn't make a great format. What makes Alliance stand out is the constant interplay between strategy and performance.”
