Mannara Chopra was the second runner-up of Bigg Boss 17, and she grabbed many headlines for her stint on the show. From being tagged as 'Expression Queen' to getting accused of trying to break Ankita Lokhande-Vicky Jain's wedding, Mannara raised eyebrows for many reasons. Most of all, it was her bond with Munawar Faruqui that excited the audience. Recently, Mannara demanded a public apology from Munawar after she learnt about his revelations that she made him uncomfortable with her kiss.
Recently, we stumbled upon a video of Mannara Chopra interacting with the media. The diva was dressed in a white-hued, one-shouldered dress with cut-out detailing near the waist area. Open tresses, subtle makeup and nude lips completed her look. During the conversation, when Mannara was asked about demanding a public apology from Munawar, she denied that she ever said that and claimed that she never saw any video where she kissed him. In her words:
"Public apology to nahi par ye jo bhi narrative unhone kaha hai... Wo video to haalanki maine nahi dekhi, but unhone bole hai aisa kisi ko. But aisi koi video bahar aayi nahi where I am trying to you know..."

Not just this, Mannara also accused Munawar of making a narrative about her, as nothing like that has ever happened. However, she added that she did not ask for a public apology from him, but she felt awkward when the journalist had told her about Munawar's claims. Mannara was heard saying:
"But jahaan tak public apology ki baat hai, maine filhaal to koi apology nahi maangi kyunki jab mujhse journalist ne pehli baar pucha to maine bola, 'Mujhe bahut awkward lag raha hai aap mujhse aise puch rahe ho'."
