Apart from this, Ira is quite active on Instagram and keeps sharing pictures and videos of her fiance Nupur. Recently, she shared an appreciation post for him and wrote, ''I don’t think I tell you enough or am able to express the extent of my love and appreciation for you. I know you and I both feel it when we cuddle though. You are an integral part and variable of the environment that has helped me grow. I don’t think you’ll ever know the extent of it nor will I be able to articulate it.''
