My 3.6 old kid is constipated very frequently, not very keen on having fruits! kindly suggest how to bring her bowel movements to normal!

Try some uice first: Usually we would recommend dietary changes. For the picky eater there are other possibilities. Most fruit juices should help. If they do not, polyethylene glycol is relatively safe, though you should discuss this with your pediatrician.
