In a dramatic turn of events on the reality show The 50, social media influencer Sagar Thakur, popularly known as Maxtern, has made startling accusations against fellow content creator Elvish Yadav. During a heartfelt conversation with Prince Narula, Maxtern claimed that Elvish deposited Rs 1 lakh into his bank account just before their infamous 2024 altercation, leaving him bewildered about the intent behind the transaction.
The Controversy Unfolds on The 50 Premiere
The captive reality show The 50 premiered grandly on Sunday, featuring contestants engaging in tasks, evictions, and controversies. Amidst the chaos, Maxtern seized the opportunity to discuss his past feud with Elvish Yadav, shedding light on previously undisclosed aspects of their conflict. He alleged that Elvish engaged in bullying behavior and made an unauthorized financial transaction through his account, adding a new layer to the already viral incident.
Recap of the 2024 Incident
In 2024, a video went viral showing Elvish Yadav allegedly assaulting Maxtern with a group of friends. Following the uproar, an FIR was filed against Elvish, who countered by accusing Maxtern of threatening him and his parents, and staging the incident for fame. The matter was later resolved with the help of Rajat Dalal, with both parties calling it a misunderstanding. However, Maxtern's recent revelations suggest deeper complexities.
Maxtern's Detailed Account on The 50
Speaking to Prince Narula, Maxtern shared intimate details of the events leading to the fight. He recounted, "Elvish told me to check my bank account. When I did, I saw he had sent Rs 1 lakh. I had no idea why. Later, he proposed working together, and in my vulnerable state, I got emotional." Maxtern also denied threatening Elvish's mother, stating he only uses harsh words when provoked by strangers.
He further explained that Elvish involved him in a music video intended to reduce hate, but added a scene where he slapped Maxtern. "I didn't think much of it as an artiste, but after release, negative memes flooded social media, making me feel manipulated," Maxtern added. The confusion deepened when Elvish's friend Lakshay Kaushik called to demand the money back, without explaining its purpose.
Prince Narula's Advice and Upcoming Confrontation
Prince Narula, who had his own clash with Elvish on Roadies, advised Maxtern to use social media wisely and not delay confronting Lakshay. "I made a mistake by dragging fights online to show real vs. reel differences," Narula shared. With Lakshay also part of The 50 cast, the upcoming episode promises a heated confrontation between him and Maxtern, potentially escalating into a major fight.
