Telugu actress Mannara Chopra, who is also Priyanka Chopra's cousin, recently attended the teaser launch of her upcoming movie, Thiragabadara Saami. She was also joined by the film's director, A.S. Ravi Kumar Chowdary. However, the filmmaker is gaining headlines for the wrong reasons after he was seen kissing Mannara at the event.
In the video, Mannara can be seen posing for the paparazzi with the makers of Thiragabadara Saami. Soon after, the director puts his arms around her shoulder and kisses her on the cheek without her consent, leaving her uncomfortable. She was also shocked by A.S. Ravi Kumar Chowdary's gesture and tried her best to conceal it by laughing.
Check out the viral video:
Meanwhile, apart from Mannara, Thiragabadara Saami also stars Nandamuri Balakrishna, Gopichand, and Sai Dharam Tej in pivotal roles. Makarand Deshpande will be seen playing the villain in the movie.
