Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan have been married for 32 years now. The couple tied the knot even before Shah Rukh Khan kicked off his Bollywood journey in 1991. It is widely reported that the couple had two wedding ceremonies, a Hindu ceremony to honour Gauri’s roots and a nikaah respecting Shah Rukh’s roots. While time and again photos of their wedding surface on social media, a new report has claimed that Shah Rukh and Gauri adopted different names for their wedding ceremonies.
According to The Indian Express, Shah Rukh allegedly chose the name Jeetender Kumar Tulli for the Hindu wedding ceremony. Citing Mushtaq Sheikh’s book Shah Rukh Can, the publication claimed that SRK chose the name Jeetender because his grandmother thought he looked similar to the Bollywood star. The middle and the surname apparently was borrowed from Rajendra Kumar. It is said that Rajendra Kumar’s full name was Rajendra Kumar Tulli, hence SRK chose to go by that.
While Shah Rukh had a witty name for the ceremony, it is claimed that Gauri also picked a different name for their nikaah. She allegedly chose the name ‘Ayesha’ for the ceremony. “We have not told this to many people,” the actor is quoted in the book. Besides the traditional weddings, Shah Rukh and Gauri also had a court marriage.
About 32 years later, Shah Rukh is one of the biggest superstars in the country while Gauri has established herself as a renowned interior designer. The couple also has three children — sons Aryan Khan and AbRam Khan, and daughter Suhana Khan.
On the work front, Shah Rukh will be seen in Jawan this September. The film is directed by Atlee and the actor is rumoured to be playing a double role. Jawan also stars Nayanthara, Sanya Malhotra, Vijay Sethupathi, Priyamani and Riddhi Dogra among others. It will also have a special appearance from Deepika Padukone. The much-awaited film will release on September 7 this year.
