Can the macro lens also work normally besides doing close range photography ?
Or one has to buy both the lens ?

Of course you can use the 50mm macro for other stuffs....But the only difference (ignoring IQ factors) will be that your max aperture will be at f2.x instead of f1.8.
50mm normal lens the closer you can get is about 30cmLet's say I have a 50mm 1.8g lens and another 50mm micro/macro lens.

Which one? Just curious.
Okayyy, will the 50mm macro lens also give me good bokeh as that of normal 50mm ?
Thanks for your inputs, getting to know more things

you want to get narrow depth of field effect, just remember thisOkayyy, will the 50mm macro lens also give me good bokeh as that of normal 50mm ?

I thought 50mm can shoot portraits?

If you shoot the same subject from the same distance, with both lenses at f/2.8 you will get an identical amount of blur. As for bokeh, the quality of this will depend on the background, your composition and the construction of the lens.
how doesthe construction of the lens affect the bokeh? number of blades?

correct. the less blade the least rounded your bokeh is.
