Shiv Thakare Wins 'The 50' Amidst Grand Finale Twist

The celebrity reality series 'The 50' has concluded its filming, with Shiv Thakare declared the winner. The grand finale took place on February 19 in Mumbai, culminating a high-stakes competition that featured 50 stars. While the Top 4 contestants were Mr Faisu, Immortal Kaka, Krishna Shroff, and Shiv Thakare, the show's producers opted to shoot the winning moment with all finalists present.

This strategic decision was made to preserve an element of mystery, with the official winner set to be announced on March 22. Sources indicate that Rajat Dalal was eliminated in fifth place before the Top 4 battled it out. A challenging "Puzzle" task was introduced, where timing was crucial for individual success.

Immortal Kaka failed to solve the puzzle, while Krishna Shroff completed it in approximately 25 minutes. Shiv Thakare demonstrated remarkable speed, finishing the puzzle in about 10 minutes, followed by Mr Faisu, who took approximately 14 minutes after an initial incorrect attempt. Based on task performance, Shiv Thakare secured the win, though the final announcement remains pending.

Shiv Thakare is a familiar face in reality television, having previously participated in 'Roadies', 'Bigg Boss Marathi', 'Bigg Boss 16' (Hindi), and 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa'. 'The 50' featured a diverse cast including Karan Patel, Urvashi Dholakia, and Prince Narula.
