During a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Mannara was asked about the impact that actress Priyanka had on the young and present Mannara. The actress replied that Priyanka always had a strong impact, not only on her, but on all the cousins growing up in the family. Mannara said, “She (Priyanka) has always projected herself as a very strong and independent woman and I looked up to her at that age because everywhere she went, she could buy her own things, she can stay at the best of the places, she can do whatever she wants, she could rule the world according to her terms and that is what I tried to imbibe.”
