Furthermore, sharing details about her love story, Fenil revealed that she met Gurpartap two years back through a mutual friend and started dating a year after.
"Then our families met and liked each other and now we are married. It all feels like a dream," Fenil added.
The actress shared that she always wanted an intimate wedding, and having their close ones present meant a lot to both of them. "I will be staying in Punjab for a month or so and in case any interesting work opportunity comes my way, I will come back to Mumbai for work," Fenil concluded.
On the work front, Fenil made her acting debut with Maryada: Lekin Kab Tak? in 2010. She has starred in several television serials, including Dil Se Di Dua... Saubhagyavati Bhava? and Madhubala—Ek Ishq Ek Junoon, among others.
Her lead portrayal as Sanjana, aka Sanju, in Best Friends Forever continues to be a fan favourite. The show also featured Charlie Chauhan, Shritama Mukherjee, Parth Samthaan, Yuvraj Thakur, and Rohit Saraf. It was loosely based on the American show Pretty Little Liars.
