Mannara Chopra shares first set of pictures after father's demise, says, 'Not because I have moved on but..'

Actor and Bigg Boss 17 finalist Mannara Chopra has resumed posting on Instagram following the death of her father, who passed away in June 2024 after suffering a cardiac arrest. The actress, who had taken a break from social media to grieve privately, marked her return with a recent photoshoot accompanied by a deeply emotional message.

Sharing a series of images, Mannara wrote: How to be brave… when you’ve lost your world? 🤍 He raised me to rise — with grace in pain and power in purpose. Posting again, not because I’ve moved on… but because this is my work. 🤍 #BackOnTheGram.

The post was met with an outpouring of support from fans, fellow celebrities, and followers who praised her strength and openness in expressing her emotions. Many noted the vulnerability in her message and acknowledged the courage it takes to step back into the public eye while still processing personal grief.

Mannara’s father, who maintained a low profile, was known to have been a constant pillar of support throughout her career. The news of his sudden demise came as a shock to her followers. Reports confirmed that he died due to a heart attack, and Mannara had flown back to her family home in Hyderabad shortly after receiving the news.

The actress, known for her strong presence on Bigg Boss 17, has often spoken about her close bond with her family. During her time on the show, she referred to her father with affection and credited him for her values and resilience.

In the new photos shared on Instagram, Mannara appears composed and poised, though her caption reflects the emotional weight she continues to carry. Her return to social media, she clarified, is not a sign of healing but a commitment to her professional responsibilities.

While she has chosen not to speak in detail about the loss, her message resonated with many who have faced similar grief while balancing public life.

Mannara continues to receive messages of love and support as she navigates this new chapter.
