“My mother was very happy. Meri mummy ko lagta hai main apne aap ko zindagi mein kabhi sambhal nahi sakti thi, to unko ek opportunity mili thi ki acha chalo iska koi khayal rakh lega. And, I came to Bombay, and I was staying with so many girls but I was fine with it. Main ye nahi bolungi struggle tha,I was fine with it. Main vaise bhi, sabko pata hai, boht talkative huin, han kabhi kabhi problem ho jati thi. main bhi target hoti huin, jaise apne humesha se dekha hai BB house mein, real life mein bhi boht target mujhe karte the."( My mother used to think, I would never be able to take care of myself and that this was an opportunity that someone would take care of me… I will not call my journey a strugle. I am anyway a very talktaive person, like many people know but sometimes there used to be problems. Like the BB house, I have been a target in real life as well).

Mannara Chopra on getting Rs. 25,000 offer for ad shoot

"But I used to kind of manage because you know what your goals and ambitions are. And, apart from that when I was doing these dance classes, I started auditioning for ads because jo dance classes ke paise hote the na voh honesty se, I was hardly getting about any money; survival jo hota hai Bombay mein easy ahi hota. So, when somebody called me for an ad, and they were like you are shortlisted and if you will get selected, you will get Rs. 25,000, to mujhe laga ye to mujhe mere pure mahine ki salary bhi nahi hai.So, that was what I was really attracted to ki chalo pocket money nikal jayega..."( I started auditioning for ads because the dance classes money was nothing. So when somebody called me for an ad, and told me the salary, I thought this is more than my entire monthly income. This was why I was very attracted to this prospect thinking atleast, I will be able to make some pocket money).
