Mannara Chopra reveals she came to BB17 due to her individuality

Mannara Chopra also talked about how there were too many couples in the BB house and shared that she didn't bag the show due to her filmy background. She mentioned that Ayesha Khan came to the show due to someone else’s fame, but everyone else was there due to their individuality. In Mannara's words:

“There were too many couples in the house, and this must have come up in a big way, especially when I said things about Ayesha to Munawar, such as that he would have never come to that house the way she did. I have my family in the industry, but I didn’t come to the show because of them. Everyone here was due to their individuality, but she came here on someone else’s fame."

Mannara Chopra talks about the accusations of character assassination against her

Further, Mannara Chopra shed light on the accusations of character assassination that her ex-contestants had levelled against her. Speaking along the same lines, Mannara added that she always spoke facts and when people did her character assassination, it only showed their mindset. However, she mentioned that she is okay if her co-contestants would like to mend things and reach out to her in the future and said:

"Character assassination is a very heavy word to be projected and used. For Isha, she said she didn’t have a boyfriend and then she was okay to be pally with Abhishek who was her ex. When someone came in, she changed. I am not like that. So I spoke facts always. About my character assassination happening, it only shows their mindset. If they want to resolve things, okay. In the future, if they want to connect, okay. If not, we wish each other well. That’s all about it.”

Mannara Chopra on her equation with Ankita Lokhande

When Mannara was asked about how she felt when her biggest rival, Ankita Lokhande, was evicted before her, she shed light on their equation. Mannara shared that she came very naive in the house but was accused of teasing people with the way she spoke. However, she also mentioned that she was always nice to Ankita, but things turned sour during the torture task. Mannara added:

“I have always welcomed people with a smile. I did the same on the show. But after the torture task, the things Ankita told me projected her in another way. And I feel that affected her connection with the audience. I came very naive in the house. I was accused of teasing people with the way I spoke, but that is how I talk. I hope we are friends outside. I respect her talent.”
