Gauri obviously said yes, but since Gauri was a Hindu-Brahimn and Shah Rukh a Muslim, their union faced ample of problems from Gauri’s side. In an interview, years later, this is what Gauri said about her parents’ reaction, “Yes, my parents were obviously not for it because we were so young and then to take a decision to get married to a person who was going to join films and also from a different religion.” But, love triumphs all, and after a lot of effort, Shah Rukh and Gauri got the blessings of Gauri’s parents too. Shah Rukh and Gauri dated for around five years before finally getting married on 25 October, 1991. Interestingly, their wedding was a Hindu ceremony.
Gauri’s father was not ready and agreeing to their marriage but her brother was a big help in getting them fixed.
Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan got married on 25th October 1991. They surely had hurdles but SRK always stood straight and firm. Even after completing 26 years today, they have huge respect for each other. Two years ago, Shah Rukh had thanked Gauri ‘for 32 yrs of Patience Perseverance Forgiveness love & 3 beautiful kids.’
Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan are blessed with adorable children! Two kids Aryan (19), Suhana (17) and then AbRam (4).
