Mannara Chopra and Munawar Faruqui's equation changed for the worse after Ayesh Khan entered Bigg Boss 17 as a wild card contestant. Until she entered the show, Mannara and Munawar were on good terms with each other. However, their friendship went downhill due to certain misunderstandings. Despite that, Mannara admitted on Weekend Ka Vaar that she likes Munawar but 'as a friend'. The actress initially said 'I like him', however, she gave clarity about liking Faruqui 'as a friend' to Anurag Dobhal.
