In a previous interview with the BBC, Shah Rukh stated that even he would not have permitted his daughter to marry someone of his background if he had been Gauri’s parents.

“Now I look alright, I’m wearing a suit, and my hair is combed back,” he declared. I was from a different religion at the time, and I had hair all over here (pointing to his forehead). I desired a career in acting. To someone who approached me and said, “See my head is like this, I am from a different religion, and I want to be a film star,” I would respond, “Just pack your bags and get out of the house” The actor believed that Gauri’s parents were absolutely right on their part in not getting their daughter married to him initially.

He continued, “We had protests outside of the house. Fortunately, I didn’t have a house in my name, so I had given a friend’s address. Instead of throwing stones at me, they were throwing stones at him. My friend Sanjay was calling me saying, ‘They are throwing stones at my house’. That happened. So, we had to keep it (their marriage) a little under the wrap and get it done.”
