I don't generally feel any pain otherwise but When I am touching that black area with a toothpick I am feeling some sensitivity In It.

If you can see black spots, that means the tooth is decayed. And pain on touching it with tooth pick means, there's a significant loss of enamel leading to sensitivity.
Next Steps
consult a dentist and get the decay removed and a filling done.
