Throwback Tuesday: when Gauri Khan’s rule of ‘Work stays on set’ kept Shah Rukh’s focus on family in home

Bollywood’s power couple, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, have a love story that’s gone the distance. Back in 1991, they tied the knot as young lovebirds, leaving their Delhi families behind to chase dreams in Mumbai. But guess what? Gauri wasn’t exactly starstruck!
In a throwback interview, she surprised everyone by saying she had zero interest in Shah Rukh’s film career. Acting, she declared, was the “worst profession” in the world, and no offer could tempt her into it. Talk about a supportive wife, right?
She even laid down some ground rules: no work talk at home, and definitely no scripts crossing their doorstep! “He has enough time for all that on the sets,” she declared, with a playful threat to throw out any script that dared to enter.
Things took a turn when Shah Rukh set up his office at home, though. Gauri, ever the pragmatist, figured their living room might become a bit of a film hub. But hey, for her beloved Shah Rukh, she was willing to adapt!
This early peek into their lives shows just how strong and understanding Gauri is, and how their love has navigated everything, from film sets to front-room offices. Now that’s a story worth celebrating!
