Family Week arrived at the Bigg Boss 10 Telugu house in Episode 68 and gave the contestants a much-needed emotional respite after weeks of clashes, confrontations, and fiery exchanges. The reunions with loved ones brought warmth and tears, but the visits carried more than just affection. Family members came armed with blessings, pointed observations and strategic counsel that could shape the contestants’ approach in the days ahead.
The episode saw visits from Ram Prasad’s mother and daughter, Debjani’s parents, and Sudheer’s mother, and each encounter delivered its own share of highlights.
The morning began on a cheerful note as Bigg Boss played ‘Side Side Side Please,’ getting the housemates to dance and soak in the lighter mood. Trigun then stirred things up by telling the others that Neethu had offered Varshini coffee near the bathroom. When the others corrected him, saying it was actually black tea, Trigun shifted the blame to Sudheer, claiming he was the source of the information. Convinced that Sudheer was intentionally sowing confusion, Trigun confronted Neethu and Varshini, making it clear he hadn’t even touched the drink and questioning Sudheer’s motive for spreading such talk. He went further, suggesting Sudheer was trying to drive a wedge between him and the other contestants.
A separate row erupted over the steamer. Mukesh noticed that Trigun had left it switched on or improperly placed after ironing and questioned Naresh about making someone with such habits the captain. When Trigun turned up, he insisted he hadn’t abandoned the appliance and had merely set it down there. The exchange grew heated, with Mukesh explaining that leaving the steamer in that state could ruin it while Trigun kept defending himself. Shiva weighed in, noting that Aman had made similar errors and that careless handling could cause leakage and damage. The argument spiraled when Trigun resorted to insulting language. Neethu Master objected to his words, and Mukesh fired back with sarcastic remarks about Trigun’s attitude. Trigun kept up the personal jabs, calling Mukesh names and questioning his understanding, but Mukesh chose not to escalate further and simply asked him not to repeat the mistake.
Bigg Boss then rolled out the BB School task, with Naresh stepping into the role of school principal. The contestants were given a lesson called ‘Three Steps to Success’, and Naresh delivered an entertaining yet meaningful session centred on three qualities: behaviour, time management and knowledge. He threw himself fully into the principal’s character, and his performance stood out, bringing some lighthearted moments before the emotional family visits took over.
One of the most touching moments of the episode came when Ram Prasad’s mother, Adilakshmi, entered through the back entrance. She walked straight into the kitchen and surprised everyone by making tea herself. Ram Prasad was overcome with joy at seeing her, and his first question was about his daughter, Ujwala, joking that he wouldn’t be able to cope if she didn’t come. During their chat, he asked his mother how his performance was being received outside. Adilakshmi praised his game but felt his performance had dipped somewhat recently. She also voiced disappointment at the way some contestants were labelling him cunning, pointing out that the others were just as involved in strategic play but that Ram Prasad was being singled out because he was seen as one of the senior members. Her advice was to be more assertive and speak firmly when needed rather than staying silent.
The joy doubled when Ujwala entered the house. Her arrival brought smiles and excitement, and she mingled with the housemates, sharing playful moments. Before leaving, Adilakshmi gave Ram Prasad another key piece of advice, warning him against repeatedly discussing who might leave or be eliminated next. She explained that such talk could be read differently outside and might damage his image. Her message was blunt: focus on the game instead of predicting other contestants’ fates.
Next came Debjani’s parents, and seeing them inside the house moved her deeply as she welcomed them with affection. After meeting the other contestants, her father shared some interesting observations. He was especially appreciative of Trigun, describing him as someone who could control situations and read others’ gameplay, and suggesting his style was different from the rest. The comments seemed a subtle hint that Trigun was emerging as a strong contender. Naresh added some humor by jokingly expressing his love for Debjani in her parents’ language. Debjani’s father also advised Debjani, Naresh, and Ram Prasad to keep playing together.
While acknowledging her early performance, Debjani’s parents noted that her intensity had dropped in recent weeks. They urged her to focus entirely on the competition and not lose her grip, stressing the importance of being strong during nomination discussions. Her father told her to give stronger reasons during nominations instead of holding back, and encouraged her to bring out her fierce side, referring to her powerful Durga avatar.
His message was that the whole world was watching and that she had entered the house to play, not to be swayed by unnecessary emotions. Her parents also advised her to maintain a good equation with Trigun. Later, they distributed special sweets and paan brought from Kolkata among the housemates, adding another pleasant family moment. In his conversation with Bigg Boss, Debjani’s father proudly said that Debjani had built her own career through her own efforts and that her parents hadn’t created opportunities for her. Touched by their love and confidence, Debjani grew emotional and thanked Bigg Boss for the chance to meet them.
Towards the end of the episode, Sudheer’s mother entered the house, creating yet another emotional moment. Her arrival added to the Family Week festivities as the contestants continued to receive affection, encouragement, and valuable advice from their loved ones, and her interaction set the stage for more emotional conversations and possibly important revelations about Sudheer’s journey in the competition.
