Shah Rukh Khan’s story from a common man to a superstar is highly inspiring. From roaming on the streets of Delhi to ruling Mumbai city, Shah Rukh has taught people to dream and work hard to attain them. He had made his acting debut with the show, Fauji in 1989, and had started his way to being the Badshah of Bollywood with Deewana in 1992. Over the years, Shah Rukh has proved that no one can throw him out of Bollywood. However, his wife, Gauri Khan, certainly had thought so!
Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Chibber had met each other at a party in Delhi in 1988, where the Cupid had struck them. Being madly in love, Shah Rukh had followed Gauri to Mumbai, even without knowing her whereabouts and had found her on the seashore of Mumbai while looking for her. Leaving Delhi, Shah Rukh had shifted to Mumbai and had tied the knot with Gauri Chibber on October 25, 1991. And today, Shah Rukh and Gauri are celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary.

While things might be tough for Shah Rukh Khan and his family, of late, due to the arrest of his son, Aryan Khan, in an alleged drugs case, we are here to recall some happy memories going down memory lane. When Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan had featured on Rendezvous with Simi Garewal, after Aryan Khan's birth, she had mentioned that she was sure her husband would be thrown out of Bollywood after a few films. She had said:
"I don't know, it all happened so quick that I didn't even think that he's gonna be in the films like be a part of the industry. I thought he'll just do one or two films. I guess I just thought it's like doing a serial or something, not realising... I thought he would probably flop. Really, I thought it was all rubbish, he'll just do one or two films and he'll just be thrown out and then that's it."
Well, Shah Rukh Khan’s dedication to his work is what has made him a big star today. His dedication has been so high that he had decided to go on shoot even on his wedding night. It had happened that Shah Rukh was shooting for the movie, Dil Aashna Hai, which was Hema Malini's first directorial debut when he got married. It was SRK’s struggling days, and signing a movie was a big thing for him.

On his wedding day, Hema Malini had called SRK and had asked him to visit the sets for the shoot if he wanted to meet her, and he had taken his newly wedded wife, Gauri along with him. SRK and Gauri had reached the set, but Hema was not present there, and the newly wedded couple was told that she would reach soon. Around 11 PM, Shah Rukh had started shooting for the film, leaving Gauri in the makeup room.
The shoot for the film had continued till 2 AM, but the veteran actress, Hema Malini had not come to visit the sets. After the shoot, when SRK had returned to his makeup room, Gauri was sleeping on an iron chair, wearing her saree, heavy jewellery and chooda as she had gone with him, straight from their wedding. The room was filled with mosquitoes, biting Gauri, and this had made SRK sad, and tears had rolled out of his eyes.
Of all the on-screen roles that Shah Rukh has performed in his career, we love his off-screen role with Gauri the most!
