First Task Introduces Power and Strategy

Soon after entering the grand mansion, the contestants were given their first official task by the mysterious authority figure known as “The Lion.” Unlike regular reality shows, The 50 focuses heavily on influence and leadership, and this task was designed to test exactly that.

The contestants were instructed to select ten captains, who would enjoy special privileges and decision-making power in the initial phase of the game. These captains were then asked to form their own teams, with each leader choosing four members, creating ten teams of five contestants each.

This task not only decided leadership roles but also revealed early bonds, preferences, and possible rivalries inside the house.

List of the First Captains of The 50

According to reports, the following contestants emerged as the first captains of The 50:

Karan Patel
Rajat Dalal
Prince Narula
Nikki Tamboli
Urvashi Dholakia
Monalisa
Mr Faisu (Faisal Shaikh)
Krishna Shroff
Shrutika Arjun
Rachit

The mix of experienced reality stars, television actors, and digital influencers ensures that each team will bring a different style of gameplay to the competition.

Why Becoming a Captain Matters

Being a captain in the very first week is a huge advantage in The 50. Captains not only get a chance to shape their teams but also gain early control over group dynamics. These initial alliances can play a crucial role in upcoming eliminations, tasks, and power shifts.

At the same time, leadership also brings pressure. Any wrong decision can put a captain directly in the spotlight, making them a target for other contestants.

What to Expect Next

With teams now formed and captains in charge, the game is expected to intensify quickly. Viewers can look forward to power struggles, shifting alliances, dramatic confrontations, and unexpected friendships as the competition moves forward.

As the premiere date approaches, more inside updates and contestant dynamics are likely to surface, keeping fans hooked even before the first episode goes on air.
