In an interview with ETimes, she talked about her marriage and said, "I am an artist. I am Snehal Rai and it was never necessary for me to say I am Mrs. Snehal Rai. But I am participating in a pageant for married women so I felt now is the time to say that I am ‘Mrs.’ As a wife, I am very happy but that is not my only identity."
Sharing about their long distance-relationship, she told the publication, “There’s always a lovey-doveyness like boyfriend-girlfriend because we get excited to meet each other. Our relationship has seen many ups and downs and we are very secure about each other. We are mentally very strong.”
Madhvendra was a VIP visitor at the event that Snehal was hosting when she first met him. The following day they had a chance encounter on a flight, and she later began hosting events for his event management business before they got married.
"I was only 23 when I got married. I never felt like my career would see a setback because of this. My husband is like a friend to me. I share such a good bond with him that all these things never occurred to me. The notion of marriage being a barrier in your career is wrong and many actresses have proven it," the actor said.
Snehal Rai is known for featuring in television shows like 'Ishq Ka Rang Safed', 'Janmo Ka Bandhan', 'Ichhapyaari Naagin', 'Perfect Pati', and 'Vish'.
