Gauri Khan is celebrating her birthday today, October 8. The renowned producer and interior designer carries an influence far beyond the shadows of her husband, Shah Rukh Khan’s name. She has carved a niche for herself in the industry while equally balancing her role as a mother and a wife. Over the years, Gauri has transformed herself from Mrs. Shah Rukh Khan to establishing her name as one of the prominent figures in the world of interior design and film production.
On the occasion of her 54th birthday, let’s have a look at her journey from being a star wife to a successful businesswoman.
GAURI KHAN’s TRANSFORMATION FROM A STAR WIFE TO SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEUR
Gauri Chibber, born on October 8, 1970, in New Delhi to a Punjabi family, met Shah Rukh Khan during their teenage years.
Their love story quickly blossomed and they got married on October 25, 1991, before Shah Rukh embarked on his film career.
Now, after more than 30 years of marriage and raising three children—Aryan, Suhana and AbRam Khan—Gauri and Shah Rukh’s love story remains one of Bollywood’s most iconic romances.
However, Gauri was determined to carve her own path, aspiring to build her individual identity and pursue her own ambitions beyond being just Shah Rukh’s wife.
In 2002, she and Shah Rukh established the film production and distribution company Red Chillies Entertainment, which became one of the most successful film production houses in Bollywood.
At present, Gauri is the main producer and co-owner of the films produced under their company.
Om Shanti Om, Main Hoon Na, Student of the Year, Happy New Year, and Dear Zindagi are some of the notable films produced under Red Chillies.
Though Gauri Khan holds a degree in fashion design, her true passion lies in interior design.
Her journey began with designing the interiors of her own home, Mannat, which quickly gained attention for its opulent and unique aesthetic.
In 2010, Gauri ventured into the world of interior design alongside her close friend, Sussanne Khan, Hrithik Roshan’s ex-wife.
Today, she runs her own brand, Gauri Khan Designs (GKD), catering to high-profile clients like Mukesh Ambani, Karan Johar, and Roberto Cavalli, among others, establishing herself as a respected figure in the design world.
Apart from her role as a producer and interior designer, Gauri also hosted a chat show, Dream Homes With Gauri Khan, which offered the audience a glimpse at how the star wife transforms the homes of celebrities.
Meanwhile, she also published a book titled My Life in Design.
