Later, Rajat shared a video explaining how the injury occurred while filming The 50. He also posted his MRI report, which revealed a serious issue in his right elbow.
The report stated:
“Full thickness tear of the tendinous component of lateral fibers of triceps tendon with approximately 3 cm retracting of the torn fibers."
Rajat explained that the injury took place during a task on the show’s premiere episode. However, instead of stepping away, he chose to continue competing despite the pain.
He said:
“Sab puch rahe hain ki hua kya hai. The 50 ke pehle din ke shoot pe mere ko tendon tear ho gaya tha, thick tear tha, 2.8 cm ka. Jo baad me ek task jab maine perform kara usme badh ke 3 cm ho gaya."
Although doctors had recommended surgery, Rajat revealed that he decided to delay the procedure because of his commitment to the reality show.
Speaking about his decision, he said:
“Par show ki commitment thi aur mera man bhi nahi tha chorne ka…to pehle show complete kara aur ab finally mere ko jis doctor se surgery karani thi waha date mili."
Once the shoot was completed, he scheduled the operation with the doctor he preferred.
Giving fans an update after the procedure, Rajat reassured everyone that things had gone smoothly.
He added:
“Aaj woh surgery hui hai aur acchi hui hai."
The reality show The 50 premiered on February 1, featuring 50 celebrities living together in a palace-style setup, where they compete in games and form alliances to survive in the competition.
As the season progressed, the dynamics between contestants shifted significantly. At one point, participants including Nehal Chudasama and Arushi moved from Prince Narula’s alliance to join Rajat Dalal and Faisal Shaikh’s team, creating new strategies within the house.
Earlier in the game, Rajat also made strategic moves that led to the elimination of several members from Prince’s alliance.
With the shoot now completed and contestants returning home, the show has continued to generate buzz among reality TV fans.
