The
upcoming reality show The 50 is all set to make its India debut, and the scale of its setting promises nothing short of spectacle. Adapted from a popular Western format, the show introduces audiences to a grand palace that is as much a character as the contestants themselves. Designed to host strategy, rivalry, luxury and survival, The 50 palace is full of royal aesthetics and gameplay-driven spaces. Zoom went on a special home tour to see the palace that will host 50 of India's most famous celebrities and we have brought exclusive glimpses for you!

The palace follows a unique design theme described as Ethiopian meets Rajasthani vibe. Every corner reflects this fusion, creating an atmosphere that feels both regal and untamed. Spread across multiple zones, the property includes four lounge rooms, six bedrooms and a dedicated Lion’s Den, each space serving a specific purpose in the game.
At the heart of the palace lies the arena, where 50 celebrities will battle it out to secure their safety. These competitions decide who stays in luxury and who is pushed into harsher living conditions. The arena is designed to amplify tension, as contestants fight not just for comfort but for survival in the game.The palace is divided into several storytelling spaces, with each area contributing to the show’s narrative. One such key zone is the courtyard, which will host the Lion Crazy games. These high-energy challenges are expected to shift power dynamics and test alliances, making the courtyard a crucial battleground.
Contestants will compete in three categories of games: Arena games, Den Or Dare games and Lion Crazy games. Those declared safe earn access to the palace’s luxurious bedrooms, while unsafe contestants are sent to the unsafe zone. Unlike the lavish sleeping quarters, the unsafe zone has no beds, only lounges.This space is designed purely for conversation, planning and strategy, pushing contestants to think their way back into safety.
No kitchen area in The 50
The bedrooms themselves reflect different moods. One features a calming blue aesthetic, while another embraces a girly pop vibe dominated by pink hues. Interestingly, there are no single beds, only double beds, forcing contestants to share space and take care of personal boundaries. Despite its scale, the palace deliberately excludes a kitchen area, avoiding the conflicts commonly associated with shared cooking spaces in reality shows.
The most powerful space in the palace is the Lion’s Den. This special room belongs to the king of the jungle, the silent force who commands attention without demanding it. Completing the experience is the palace’s handcrafted design. Nothing here is copied or inspired from elsewhere. Every detail is hand-painted, making
The 50 palace a one-of-a-kind arena where luxury, power and survival collide.
