Rajat Dalal Sparks Controversy on ‘The 50’ Over Comments on Caste and Relationships

The reality show The 50 is approaching its grand finale, and viewers are witnessing some of the most engaging moments from its contestants. Recently, Rajat Dalal made a comment regarding his preference in relationships that sparked controversy among fans of Chaahat Pandey.

Rising attention has surrounded the growing camaraderie between Chaahat Pandey and Rajat Dalal on The 50. Unlike their cautious approach on Bigg Boss, their interactions on this show appear closer, leading to speculation about a potential romantic connection. While fellow contestants and friends have speculated about a possible affair, Rajat Dalal has firmly denied any romantic involvement following Chaahat Pandey’s elimination from the show.

During a light-hearted exchange, contestant Nikki Tamboli teased Rajat, saying, “Your girl is gone,” hinting at the chemistry between him and Chaahat. In response, Rajat stated that he could never date or marry Chaahat. Addressing co-contestant Sapna Choudhary, he added, “Ask my sister… can I marry someone outside my caste? Look, I respect everyone equally—no one is bigger or smaller—but I want someone from my own community.”

Fan Reactions

The comments led to mixed reactions online. While some fans supported Rajat’s stance, Chaahat Pandey’s supporters questioned his intentions. One fan asked, “If you marry Chaahat Pandey, will your caste change?” Another commented, “Chaahat deserves a good man, someone she can trust and be happy with.” Others suggested that Rajat was trying to cover up his rejection of Chaahat.

Moments of Concern and Playful Banter

Despite the controversy, Rajat showed concern for Chaahat during the show. For instance, he appeared slightly upset when Prince Narula hugged Chaahat, even after she clarified that she considered him like a brother. Additionally, playful teasing from other contestants during tasks, such as balancing books on Chaahat’s head, further highlighted their on-screen camaraderie, leaving both contestants shy and embarrassed.

Recent episodes also saw the elimination of five contestants, including Chaahat Pandey, Karan Patel, Arya, Bhavya, and Maxterm, creating significant waves in the house.

Continuing Popularity

Rajat Dalal gained widespread fame from Bigg Boss 18 and has carried that momentum into The 50. Known for his calculated strategies and sharp, witty arguments, he has repeatedly guided his team to victories, making him one of the most discussed contestants of this season.
