The 50 elimination Episode 23: The 50 delivered a tense mix of shifting alliances, harsh calls and one big shock in the Monday episode, taking away all our Monday blues. Strategic shooting in the Arena sent several players to the Danger Zone, while plotting over votes deepened mistrust. Tempers rose across teams, and after many clashes, Monalisa received the exit order, leaving the atmosphere heavy and many contestants visibly shaken.
The elimination twist came after long arguments over nominations in the palace. Nikki said Divya told Nikki that Rajat played dirty, which angered Rajat, who strongly denied any manipulation. Prince discussed a divide-and-rule approach, while players tried to secure safety through late-night talks. During one key chat, Faisu asked Prince about voting for Shiny, and Prince confidently claimed that nominations for 11 contestants could be handled.
The 50 palace power battles and team captains
Earlier, The Lion ordered a reshuffle by creating four teams of eight contestants, asking them to choose captains. The decision triggered tension at once. Manisha demanded the captain’s spot and refused to participate otherwise, but Rajat dismissed that demand in front of others. Manisha broke down while speaking to Shrutika and called Rajat a “ghatiya insaan,” which further widened emotional cracks in the group.
Once the Arena line-up settled, Ridhima, Yuvika, Sapna and Urvashi became team captains. The next twist shocked many players. Ridhima directly named Monalisa and Yung Sammy for the Danger Zone, while Manisha reached the risky list without playing. That early power move changed the mood in the palace, as some felt blindsided and others quietly adjusted their strategies.
The 50 Arena hunt task and danger rules
The Arena then turned into a focused hunt built around a horse-turntable task. Two teams played each match, fielding four players per side. One member sat on a rotating horse and fired shots, another set up the targets, while two acted as ball boys or ball girls. Each target chosen matched the contestant they wanted in the Danger Zone, so every point carried personal stakes.
By the close of each round, four contestants ended up unsafe, either from one side or split between both teams. That rule gave captains and shooters room to settle scores or test alliances. The mix of physical skill and social strategy made each attempt feel personal, as players watched friends, rivals and sometimes teammates pushed closer to elimination.
The 50 Arena clashes, accusations and danger list
During the first major showdown, Team Urvashi faced Team Yuvika, with Hamid and Arbaaz as shooters. Hamid hit Dushyant, sending Dushyant to danger, while Arbaaz aimed at Neelam, Dino and Shiny, putting all three at risk. The next clash between Team Ridhima and Team Sapna saw Digvijay and Siwet take charge, and the competitive pressure increased with every shot.
In that battle, Siwet knocked out Digvijay and Faiz, while Digvijay targeted Kaka, raising the tension. Trouble spiked after Faiz demanded to know why Faiz’s name was chosen. Prince then revealed that Rajat proposed Faiz from within their own group. That disclosure triggered chaos, loud reactions and clear rifts, as Nikki lost patience and Rajat later tried to explain things to Faisu.
Once the Arena rounds finished, Vikrant asked The Lion for permission to speak and then confronted Digvijay. Vikrant accused Digvijay of stepping into situations without reason, and also said that Sidharth always targeted Vikrant. Vikrant claimed this happened because Vikrant admitted that trust was impossible in the game, and further alleged that Sidharth played a dirty style of game.
Monalisa also argued strongly with Digvijay, which added to the tense air already hanging over the palace grounds. The final Danger Zone line-up after the task included Monalisa, Sammy, Manisha, Neelam, Dushyant, Shiny, Dino, Kaka, Vikrant and Faiz. With so many names at risk, nervous speculation took over before the exit order eventually sent Monalisa out of The 50.
Alongside nomination worries, one more flashpoint came when Yung and Sidharth clashed over loyalty and voting. Yung accused Sidharth of being in a position to vote Yung’s team out. Sidharth countered by saying Sidharth first met Prince to protect Yung and Kaka. With shifting loyalties, sharp words and strict Arena rules, Day 23 of The 50 ended with alliances strained and future moves wide open.
