The contesting families in Zee TV's Rock 'n' Roll Family are leaving no stone unturned in winning the reality show, which carries prize money of Rs 50 lakhs. The lure of the big bucks has even led few families into cheating.

Kapoor Family

Under the gun is the Kapoor family of Jaipur and the Ubales from Pune. As per the rules, each family is to be represented by three generations. However, Deepak, who the Kapoors claim to be their son, is actually not related to the family. On the other hand, Ujjwala, who is shown as a mother, is actually Shruti Ubale's sister. This shocking revelation was disclosed after the two families refused to sign the legal agreement. The channel threatened to disqualify them and it was only then that they revealed the truth.

Understandably, this upset the judges and in particularly Ajay Devgan who didn't hesitate in saying that this amounted to cheating. The two families pleaded innocence saying they never had any intentions to cheat. However, Ajay stuck by his guns and said that rules ought to be followed. In the end it was left with viewers to decide their fate.

We called Arun (head of Kapoor family) but he refused to say anything. The Ubales were unavailable for comment.

Ubale Family

Under normal circumstances such breach of rules merits an automatic disqualification but why is it that channel have left the decision with the public? Director Satish Datt explains "We too are very upset with this but after reaching at this stage in the competition it's only fair that the viewers decide their fate." But why didn't the channel conduct such checks before? Datt quips "It sounds easy but it's always an uncomfortable situation when you have to ask an individual whether he is the father of his child. Besides, when one tells that he or she is my wife or children, there's no question of not believing it. No individual would feel comfortable when asked to prove his relation with his or her dear ones"
