However, Mannara’s other cousin, Parineeti Chopra, did not extend her support for the former on social media. In the same interview, when Mannara was asked about the same, she revealed that Parineeti sent her a text message to congratulate her. Mannara shared that she hadn't seen Pari since her wedding with Raghav Chadha and said:
“When I came back from Bigg Boss, she sent me a long message saying ‘we are very happy on the journey and this is a new beginning.’ I wrote thank you to her. She texted me, and I am very happy about it. I have not really seen her after marriage.”
The former Bigg Boss 17 contestant further continued that she has achieved everything in life because of her hard work and not because of her filmy background. Calling herself a fighter, Mannara shared that she is a very work-oriented girl and added that she gets hurt when her family doesn't fulfil her expectations of love and respect. In her words:
“As sister to sister, I feel that whatever I have become in my life, it is really because of my hard work, my genuine approach towards work. Because I look at work like ‘black and white.’ If it’s happening, it’s happening, otherwise no. I really don’t rely. I am like a fighter. I am a very work-oriented girl. When it comes to family, I have expectations of love and respect. If that is missing, I get hurt.”
