In a previous interview, Mannara talked about her relationship with her cousins. She said, ‘If I named my family, they would call me a nepo kid. They would say I have no personality. Now that I haven’t named them, they have concocted another story that my relationship with my sisters is not good. My relationship is very settled.’ She further said, ‘I used to respect Priyanka while growing up because I saw how she could buy things of her own free will. She could live in the best places, do whatever she wanted, and rule the world on her own terms. This was something I learned from her. It was something that got ingrained in me.’
