Episode 12 Highlights: Mischief Makers Stir the Palace, Love Confessions and Lion’s Tough Call Shake The 50

On The 50, streaming on JioHotstar and Colors, Episode 12 brought a mix of chaos, confrontations, emotional confessions, and one of the most unexpected romantic moments
inside the palace.

Maxtern Sparks Tension Early On
The episode opened with Maxtern calling out several players, claiming many of them were extremely rich and didn’t really care about winning the prize money. When Dushyant suggested
that they should focus on strategy, Maxtern snapped back, saying he didn’t like egoistic people, and went on to label Divya as egoistic and Urvashi Dholakia as immature.

Prince Targets Rival Group
Prince also took aim at the opposing gang, accusing them of only talking about the game while not even being strong contenders. He called them negative and brought up Nikki’s earlier
decision, claiming she first pushed Khanzadi out and later pretended she didn’t want to.

Mischief Makers Enter the Palace
The energy shifted when Mischief Makers Nia Sharma and Uorfi entered the palace. However, their entry wasn’t smooth. Maxtern misbehaved with them, telling them to act like guests. Nia
and Uorfi chose to ignore him, and Maxtern eventually walked away.

The Mischief Makers then began their playful tasks:
● Uorfi gifted a tissue box to Rajat and asked him to pass tissues to two players. He chose Bhavya and Chahat.
● Faisu was given a blindfold and asked to assign it to two players. He chose Karan Patel and Shiv Thakre.
● Krishna was handed a mask meant for players who talk too much. She gave it to Siwet and Lakshay.
● Sidharth was given a support stick to pass on to players who needed it. He chose Hamid and Siwet, and sarcastically asked whether he should speak to “the boss or the staff,”
targeting Prince and his group.

This comment sparked a massive argument, with the entire palace getting involved in a heated fight.

The Lion Steps In
The Lion soon summoned all the players and reprimanded them for their behaviour towards the guests. He gave the palace a tough choice: either Siwet and Arbaaz would be eliminated, or the
two would apologise to their fans in front of everyone. Both players stepped forward and issued public apologies. Though Sidharth initially planned to exit the palace, he eventually decided to
stay.

The Lion’s Crazy Game
In the next task, the boys were told they would do all the hard work while the girls sat back and enjoyed. The Mischief Makers gave each girl a ₹5,000 token, and the boys had to impress them
through performances. The girls then rewarded tokens based on their performances, filling the palace with fun, laughter, and high-energy acts.

Arbaaz’s Emotional Proposal to Nikki
The highlight of the episode came when Arbaaz surprised everyone by proposing to Nikki and confessing his true feelings. Nikki was visibly emotional, making it one of the most heartwarming
moments of the season so far.

Sidharth’s Story Moves Aarushi to Tears
In another emotional moment, Sidharth opened up about his struggles, revealing that he had worked several jobs, including being a cab driver and a security guard. His story moved Aarushi
to tears, creating a heartfelt atmosphere in the palace.

The game concluded with players dancing together as the Mischief Makers exited the palace.  The episode wrapped up on a celebratory note, with The Lion announcing that Aarushi hadmade her fan a lakhpati, ending the night on a triumphant high.
