He is every woman’s dream, no matter what age. Shah Rukh Khan is synonymous with love, romance, and honesty. He is one of the most passionate and respected actors in Hindi cinema, who has won millions of hearts over the years with his wit, charm, and intelligence. The actor married his teenage crush, Gauri Chibber, and the couple is proud parents to Aryan, Suhana, and AbRam.
Just like his honesty towards his craft, Shah Rukh’s dedication to Gauri is unquestionable. Despite working with all the gorgeous actresses, Shah Rukh’s name was hardly linked to any of his co-stars. Many people tag him as a one-woman man, and his wife, Gauri, often validates this.

In the same interview, Shah Rukh also mentioned that she was a little girl who began her journey in front of him. Revealing how the rumours soil a friendship, Shah Rukh said:
