Have you tried adding the function to org-mode-hook?
If you haven't tried it yet, what I would recommend is to create a
function my-org-mode-hook-function which evaluates
(org-timer-set-timer 10). Then add to your .emacs file the expression
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook 'my-org-mode-hook-function).

How do you create a hook.? Kindly explain – Vaibhav Jan 16 '18 at 09:41

You don't create any hook. `org-mode-hook` is a pre-existing emacs variable, meant to contain a list of functions to be evaluated when starting `org-mode`. – user1404316 Jan 16 '18 at 10:16

Thanks for the fantastic solution. Can this timer reset every time I open an org file and can it show a pop up at the end of 10 minute – Vaibhav Jun 23 '18 at 14:16
