In the initial episodes of The 50 (which began streaming in early 2026), Maxtern revealed the backstory to [[Prince Narula]]. He said that before the 2024 fight, [[Elvish Yadav\|Elvish]] had transferred an unexpected ₹1 lakh to his account.

	He said he was not online at the time, checked later when asked to, and was puzzled about the motive Elvish had later for collaborating, which Maxtern found emotional in light of his own mental state. He also brought up repaying the amount in two UPI transactions following a call from someone connected to Elvish (Lakshay Kaushik in conversations). Maxtern wondered about the motive behind the transfer and whether it was intended to implicate him or influence the online community. He linked it to a music video shoot where a slap scene was included at the last minute, which he first found creative but later believed contributed to the memes and impression.
