As confirmed by senior journalist Heena Kumawat, 20-22 contestants were in the final race until 17th February. However, a few have now been evicted. Sapna Choudhary, who was a strong contender, had to quit the show closer to the finish line after she injured her leg during a task.

When and where to watch The 50 grand finale
Unlike Bigg Boss, The 50 is not streaming on a live basis. Even though it’s a digital-first property, its telecast is deferred. The celebrities had entered the show on 27th January and were supposed to shoot for three weeks. Ahead of entering the show, Ridhi Dogra and Mr Faisu had exclusively told SCREEN that The 50 was going to be shot over 26 days.
While the show’s telecast is running quite behind, there is a lot more in store for the viewers, from Karan Patel’s exit from the show to Arbaaz Patel being banished from the game after he slaps Prince Narula, from Manisha Rani’s eviction and re-entery, to Vanshaj Singh entering as a wild card contestant, a lot has unfolded in the past weeks. The 50 streams on JioHotstar every Monday to Sunday at 9 pm and on Colors TV every Monday to Sunday at 10:30 pm. While the show’s digital version is doing quite well, The 50 is struggling for TRPs with its TV version.
