The 50 Episode 1 Review: A Powerful Start, Strong Personalities & Early Game Politics ? The 50 – Episode 1: Just My Honest Thoughts After Watching It

I finally watched The 50 Episode 1, and instead of writing a proper “review,” I just wanted to note down how the episode actually felt while watching it. This is more like a small diary entry — raw thoughts, no hype, no over-analysis.

For a first episode, The 50 reality show didn’t try too hard. It slowly introduced the contestants and let the atmosphere build, which honestly worked for me. 

Manisha Rani Was Hard to Miss in Episode 1

One contestant who instantly caught my attention in The 50 Episode 1 was Manisha Rani. She looked confident, agile, and very comfortable on screen.

Nothing about her felt forced. She didn’t scream for attention, yet her presence was strong. From what I saw in the first episode, she feels like someone who could become one of the strongest performers in The 50 as the show progresses.

Vanshaj Felt Genuine From the Start

Vanshaj gave off very calm and real vibes in The 50 Episode 1. He wasn’t trying to create drama or overplay his personality.

What stood out for me was how naturally he supported Urvashi. In a reality show where everything often feels strategic, this moment felt refreshingly human. If consistency matters in this show, Vanshaj might quietly go far.

Krishna’s Smart and Observant Gameplay

Krishna didn’t dominate screen time, but his presence was noticeable. He seemed to be observing everyone carefully, which is usually a smart move early in a reality show like The 50.

He feels like someone who’s playing the long game rather than reacting emotionally in the first episode.

Some Moments Felt Unnecessary but were worth eye-catching

Not everything in The 50 Episode 1 worked for me.

Bebika’s body-size discussion felt out of place so early in the show, but it's good. It didn’t add much to the episode.

Shrutika’s “cute banne ki acting” also felt a bit familiar — almost like something we’ve seen in previous reality shows. Whether it’s genuine or not, only future episodes will tell. 

Maxtern’s ₹1 Lakh Story Left Me Confused

One part of The 50 Episode 1 that genuinely confused me was Maxtern talking about a ₹1 lakh story. The episode didn’t explain the context clearly, so I wasn’t sure why it was important.

This storyline may make sense later, but right now, it felt incomplete. 

Final Thoughts After Watching The 50 Episode 1

After finishing The 50 Episode 1, I didn’t feel overwhelmed but I did feel curious, which is exactly what a first episode should do.

The show seems more focused on personalities, group dynamics, and subtle gameplay rather than loud drama. If that continues, The 50 could turn out to be quite interesting. 

Your Thoughts?

  • Who stood out for you in The 50 Episode 1?

  • Did anything feel forced?

  • Did you understand Maxtern’s ₹1 lakh story?

Would love to read other opinions in the comments.
