According to Indian media reports, King Khan said in an interview that he and Gauri first met in 1984 when they were at a mutual friend's party in Delhi, when Shah Rukh Khan was just 18 years old.
Shah Rukh Khan said, "I saw Gauri dancing with another boy at the party and at the same time she was feeling a little ashamed to dance. I tried to talk to Gauri for the first time but she did something. She did not show much interest and said that she was waiting for her boyfriend. ‘
King Khan said that after hearing this, all my dreams were shattered but God had something else in mind. A few days later, I found out that Gauri had no boyfriend. He had lied to me.
According to media reports, after several attempts, Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri finally became friends. Once Shah Rukh Khan held a birthday party at his house in which he invited all his friends including Gauri but Gauri went out of the station with her friends without telling them.
That day Shah Rukh Khan realized that he could not live without Gauri. Gauri had shifted to Mumbai with her family, Shah Rukh Khan also followed her to Mumbai and went out with some of his friends to look for Gauri all over the city but they could not find him anywhere.
Shah Rukh Khan said that after searching for Gauri for a long time, one day he found her on a beach. As soon as he saw Gauri, Shah Rukh Khan offered her marriage, after which the two decided to get married. (But it wasn't that easy)
Because Gauri belonged to a 'Hindu Brahmin' family, Gauri's family did not agree to marry her to Shah Rukh Khan. Once the matter escalated to the point that Gauri's brother Vikrant took a gun to Shah Rukh Khan. Arrived and started threatening them to stay away from Gauri but Shah Rukh Khan still did not back down.
In his interview, Shah Rukh Khan said that one of the reasons for the disbelief of Gauri's family was that I was not a 'King Khan' at that time but was struggling for films, so it was very difficult to convince Gauri's parents. ۔
When Shah Rukh Khan first met Gauri's parents, he described himself as a 'Hindu', not only that, but he had also changed his name. Eventually Shah Rukh managed to convince Gauri's parents.
The couple married on October 25, 1991, after six years in a relationship. Being from a different religion was a major obstacle in their marriage. Shah Rukh Khan lied to Gauri's family for 5 years that they are Hindus but the truth has come out.
According to media reports, the Bollywood couple had to get married not once but three times. The couple first got married in a court of law, then on August 26, 1991, and then on October 25, 1991, according to Hindu rites and customs.
In his interview, Shah Rukh Khan said, "I remember that when we got married, many of Gauri's relatives were not happy. They were old-fashioned people, but I still respect her and her thinking."
