In 2023, during an ‘Ask SRK’ session on social media, a fan asked, “What was your first gift for Valentine’s Day to Gauri ma’am? @iamsrk #AskSRK.” Shah Rukh fondly recalled, “If I remember correctly, it’s been what 34 years now… a pair of pink plastic earrings, I think…”
Shah Rukh is known for his romantic gestures, and in 2020, he shared a heartwarming picture with Gauri on social media, celebrating 36 years of togetherness. He wrote, “36 years…ab toh Valentine’s bhi humse pooch kar aata hai (now even Valentine’s asks our permission before arriving). Wishing you all, love beyond restrictions…”
Their love story dates back to when Shah Rukh admitted during an audience interaction on Rajat Sharma’s show Aap Ki Adalat that Gauri was his first crush. He reminisced, “Mera first crush Gauri thi (my first crush was Gauri).” At the age of 18, he met her at a party in Delhi when she was 14. Shah Rukh expressed, “She was the first girl who spoke to me for more than three seconds. I was so encouraged by her gesture that… Ehi kudi leni hai (I have to be with this girl only).”
