Watching ‘The 50’ reveals an uncomfortable truth: From Faisu’s influencer grooming to Adnaan’s boasting about converting his Hindu wife to Islam before marriage

I occasionally follow ‘The 50’, which is a reality show where a group of influencers and celebrities perform tasks to earn money, not for themselves but for their fans. It is not exactly the sort of programme one watches for intellectual stimulation. Most of the time it is simply mindless entertainment, which one seeks after a day-long work routine. It is the kind of show you put on when you want to switch your brain off for a while. However, sometimes even the most ordinary entertainment ends up revealing something far more unsettling than intended. View this post on Instagram A post shared by
