For help, please see the Community section on https://www.virtualbox.org or your support contract. Please provide the contents of the log file VBox.log and the image file VBox.png, which you can find in the /Users/nishamohan/VirtualBox VMs/Ubuntu/Ubuntu/Logs directory, as well as a description of what you were doing when this error happened. Note that you can also access the above files by selecting Show Log from the Machine menu of the main VirtualBox window.
Press OK if you want to power off the machine or press Ignore if you want to leave it as is for debugging. Please note that debugging requires special knowledge and tools, so it is recommended to press OK now.

I would advise zipping and posting the log file mentioned in the message, using the forum's Attachments tab.

But... if this "Mac Pro" has an M1 or M2 processor then see the M1/M2 sticky at the top of this forum.

Not for modern OS's, that's correct.

The devs may get it to work one day, but it's not working now.
