The latest episode of The 50 brought both emotion and drama, with Krishna Shroff opening up about her personal life in a candid conversation that caught many by surprise. The fitness entrepreneur confirmed that she is in a live-in relationship with Afghan MMA fighter Abdul Azim Badakhshi, sharing how their unexpected love story began.

Krishna Shroff makes a personal revelation


Recalling their first interaction, Krishna said they initially crossed paths at a fight event in Mumbai. “He had a fight in Mumbai, and I was there because Tiger co-owned a team that was playing opposite him,” she shared. What started as a casual moment soon turned into something more when Azim reached out to her on Instagram. “I saw his DM; he had just said ‘Hi’. I replied, and he immediately asked for my number,” she said with a smile, adding, “No one had ever approached me with so much confidence, and I like that.”



Despite language barriers, he speaks Persian while she is more comfortable in English,  the two built a strong connection. Krishna revealed that for nearly eight months, they only spoke through video calls and phone conversations before finally meeting properly. When Azim eventually came to India, they spent two weeks together in Goa, a time she describes as deeply emotional.

“When we were saying goodbye at the airport, we didn’t know if we would ever meet again. We were both crying,” she admitted. But fate had other plans. Azim decided not to return to Afghanistan, and Krishna flew to Delhi to spend more time with him. “Those three weeks changed everything. Our relationship became much stronger,” she said.

It was during that time that she made a bold decision. “I asked him if he wanted to move in with me in Mumbai. We moved in together immediately. He lives in Mumbai now,” she confirmed.

Talking about what love means to her, Krishna reflected, “For me, love is when you put the other person before yourself. If he is okay, I am okay.” She described their journey as “crazy” and “mad,” admitting that some moments are too personal to share publicly.

Guess who re-enter The 50

The episode didn’t just focus on romance. It also saw a dramatic twist with Karan Patel and influencer Vanshaj Singh re-entering the show as wildcard contestants, sparking tension and fresh confrontations among the participants.
