When Shah Rukh Khan was ‘disgustingly possessive’ about wife Gauri Khan and wouldn’t let her wear white shirt; 'I had become very cheap'

Oh, the tales of Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan’s love story are nothing short of a Bollywood blockbuster! Their journey from young lovers to a power couple who have weathered storms and stood the test of time is truly inspiring.


The bond between Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan is reminiscent of what one might envision as the embodiment of dreams. This unyielding connection has withstood the passage of time, and they have been contentedly married for more than three decades. Although SRK is widely acclaimed as the ‘King of Romance’ and an exemplary partner, there was a period when he displayed extreme possessiveness, to the point of not permitting Gauri to wear a white t-shirt.

1997 saw Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan gracefully appear on “Rendezvous With Simi Garewal.” During their chat, the host asked Gauri if Shah Rukh had always been protective towards her. In reply, Gauri shared that it was more about possessiveness initially, which later transformed into protectiveness. She humorously added that he used to be overly possessive and a bit excessive, even going so far as to disapprove of her wearing white shirts because he thought they were see-through. In her words, it was a peculiar quirk of his mind.

SRK, seated beside her, chuckled in agreement and admitted that he had been “extremely crude” earlier. To clarify his actions, the actor shared that his initial unease originated from a sense of “not fully possessing the situation.

He explained that his connection with Gauri was kept private, and in his own words, “I believe that regardless if it’s a man or a woman, they both desire ownership. Thus, one tends to feel the need…to exert control, and I had ended up feeling quite insignificant.

Additionally, when Gauri was inquired about handling the superstar’s clinginess, Gauri disclosed that she had stayed away from him for quite some time. She stated that he needed to learn this lesson, as she had made it clear that she wouldn’t be back if he ever saw her again.

Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan tied the knot in 1991, and they have since become the proud parents of three children: Aryan, Suhana, and AbRam. Currently, their eldest son, Aryan, is preparing to launch his directorial career with Stardom, while Suhana made her acting debut last year in Zoya Akhtar’s production titled The Archies.

In terms of his career, Shah Rukh Khan is set to appear next in director Sujoy Ghosh’s movie titled “King.” This will be the first time he shares the screen with his daughter. The cast also includes Abhishek Bachchan and Abhay Verma in significant roles. TopMob previously shared that the filming will commence in Mumbai starting from January.
