The 50 Premiere: Karan Patel and Siddharth Bharadwaj’s Ugly Fight, Vanshaj Singh Eliminated on Premiere

The highly anticipated reality show The 50 premiered on 1 February 2026 with a grand and explosive first episode. While the premiere showcased all 50 celebrity contestants, the episode was marked by an ugly clash between Karan Patel and Siddharth Bharadwaj, and Vanshaj Singh became the first contestant to be eliminated. Another highlight was Maxtern revealing a shocking twist involving a social media feud with Elvish Yadav.

Grand Premiere at a Lavish Palace

The show kicked off with a glimpse of a luxurious mansion, where host Lion introduced all 50 contestants and revealed that viewers would get a chance to win ₹50 lakh. After the introductions, contestants were divided into 10 teams, and singer Himesh Reshammiya performed his hit songs, making the contestants dance and energizing the first task.

During the task, Karan Patel and Siddharth Bharadwaj came to blows. The fight began when Karan allegedly pushed Siddharth while running, warning, “Next time, I’ll break your bones.” Siddharth lost his cool, responding, “Who do you think you are to talk like this?”

Prince Narula intervened, asking both contestants to stop using abusive language, especially in front of female participants and their spouses. However, the confrontation escalated before they were eventually calmed down.

Another dramatic moment involved Maxtern, who shared with Prince Narula that following a fight with Elvish Yadav on social media, ₹1 lakh mysteriously appeared in his bank account. While it was unclear who sent the money, Elvish later offered Maxtern a collaboration. Maxtern said, “I was in a vulnerable mental state, and his offer caught me off guard. Earlier, he spread lies about me, but this gesture was unexpected.”

Vanshaj Singh Eliminated on Premiere

The first episode featured various tasks that determined the contestants’ safety. 25 contestants were declared safe, while the remaining 25 entered the “unsafe zone”. In a twist, Lion asked the 10 captains to nominate one contestant for elimination, and Vanshaj Singh was chosen.
