  • Nikki Tamboli condemned Prince Narula for alleged body-shaming on The 50 show
  • Prince's remarks faced backlash and criticism from viewers and social media.
  • "50" reality show on JioHotstar features drama and strategy among 50 contestants.

Actress Nikki Tamboli, who is currently seen on the reality show The 50, has publicly condemned reality TV star Prince Narula for supposedly making a body-shaming comment about her.

Nikki criticized his behaviour, referring to him as a ‘supposed husband, father, and public figure.’

In an episode of The 50, Prince allegedly remarked on Nikki's looks. In reply, Nikki posted the video on X (formerly Twitter), noting that ridiculing someone covertly isn't an indication of strength. She penned:

"Self-proclaimed husband, father, public persona. If anyone discussed your daughter's body in this manner, would you find it amusing as well? This does not constitute strategy. This is not a game. This is silent body-shaming, executed in a cowardly manner. Cameras do not negate character. Power does not justify rudeness. Deriding someone when they're not around isn't strength. If you have something to express, do it directly. Behind-the-back ridicule isn't bravery; it's fear masquerading as self-assurance. And impact without accountability? That isn’t what leadership looks like. That is a setback. "That's vulnerability in front of an audience."

Created by Banijay Asia, The 50 promises to be an innovative reality program available on JioHotstar and broadcast on Colors TV. Based on the French series Les Cinquante, it showcases 50 participants residing in an opulent palace without set rules, ensuring unexpected drama, strategy, and political maneuvering.

Moneycontrol.com recently reported about the incident that the episode of The 50 triggered significant backlash after Prince Narula reportedly made a remark that numerous viewers interpreted as body-shaming Nikki Tamboli.
