In one of the episodes of Bigg Boss 17, Munawar Faruqui told Ankita Lokhande that Mannara Chopra kissed him on his cheeks on Diwali night, which made him extremely uncomfortable. He even mentioned that he has been conscious about his friendships from Day 1, but the audience might have seen the incident. He also revealed that he kept this secret in his heart as he didn't want to make things awkward for Mannara. Munawar added:
"Kyunki maine wo hamesha dil me rakha hua tha. Maine bola nahi kyunki uske liye wo awkward ho jayga. Mujhe usko bhi protect karna hai us cheez se. Fir wo pochhne lagi aur dance ke baad jab hum yahan sofe par baithe the tab usne do teen baar kaha ‘Dance mast tha na? Maza aaya na dance me?’ Maine kaha haan theek tha. Fir wo mujhe aise dekhti hai aur kehti hai khadoos."
