I have installed ubuntu and manjaro. Manjato has ownership over GRUB menu. When i try to boot Ubuntu from Manjaro GRUB menu, it shows the error as in the image and then boots finely. Any reason why it happens and how i can get rid of it.
You're getting the same error message (couldn't get size 0x800000000000000) and the same advice applies. Bottom line, if you're booting OK you can ignore this error message.

What about the nouveau errors?? What are those for?? Also any way i can hide these messages??
Without knowing your hardware configuration, any further advice would be just guessing. Nouveau is the opensource driver for nvidia graphics cards. If you're otherwise running OK, you can probably ignore it. Arch and Arch based distros like Manjaro show those boot messages by default. To suppress them you would have to alter the grub configuration which I wouldn't advise for someone new to linux. You may want to try a more newbie friendly distro like ubuntu which suppresses those boot messages by default.

I am using NVIDIA graphics card, and this happens when i boot ubuntu(from Manjaro's GRUB menu) although when i boot Manjaro it boots fine without the messages.
Was any extra drivers/firmware installed when you installed manjaro? What is output of
Code:
uname -r
in each distro? the kernel version may be the difference.
Yes kernel versions are different for each distro, but i don't think that is the issue. I installed fedora, and booting fedora from Manjaro's grub menu doesn't give any error. Also booting Manjaro from Ubuntu's grub menu doesn't give any error either. If i boot Ubuntu from Manjaro's grub menu it gives the error in the screenshot.
