Wong information bro. Its not chrome which leaked the data...... Chrome is identifying bad passwords which are leaked in various data breaches across world and informing you to change it asap. Even if you dont use this extension, chrome by default shows bad password leaked in data breaches by various providers.

one of my password was leaked due to data breach by zomato.com site which exposed my password. Chrome identified it and asked me to change this same password used in other sites as well as it was leaked.

Your title is absolute clickbait, there was no data breach. Your friend got (one of?) his password(s) stolen, because some website he signed up into got compromised. Whas this extension does is it only checks if the password you are using has been seen in a previous data breach (most of them are not public, so you might as well use proper passwords).

Use something like 1Password, BitWarden or LastPass and generate a unique password for every service you use. That kind of complicated passwords will never be reversed even from simple md5 hashing if they're long enough. And if they get stolen because someone was storing them in clear text, it will only be the one for that website.
