So, I tried to give her that respect to the fullest."

Mannara feels that Ankita didn’t take it positively that she was the first female finalist of the show.

“But until that torture task happened and we were given an option of going directly to the finale. From there I think she could not take it in a very positive way and said very rough things which really hurt me. I really couldn’t say much because I had that respect for Vicky bhai that I must maintain."

Mannara added: “I don’t know what she feels, but I have a lot of respect for Vicky bhai and would like to give Ankita ji also.”

Mannara said: “I don’t know what kind of character assassinations she is talking about but I consider her to be my very good friend. But when she said things like ‘bar girl’ and ‘lingerie’ I was like what happened to her.”

Mannara added: “I think she didn’t take it in a positive way with me being the only girl to be the first finalist. She must’ve reacted like that and words came out of her mouth. But I could not digest it, that it came out of Isha’s mouth."
