Talking to Hauterrfly, the Lucknow Central actress said, "Yes, I am not single. I will not go on a rooftop and shout about it, but my partner and I have been together for 12 years, and we’ve known each other for 22 years, which is half of my life. So even though I am not married, in my head I am. It’s the same thing because you’re respecting the relationship in the same way."

When she was asked if their families are putting any pressure on them to get married soon, the actress replied, "Both our families are very chill, and they respect what we have. Their priority is our happiness. It’s not like we don’t like the concept of marriage, but we live together, have a dog together, everybody knows we are together, so there’s no rush. It’s pretty much like being married, just that it’s not on paper, and it makes no difference to me or him."
