Shahrukh himself once told about this in a TV show, where he talked about his wife Gauri, her religion and his faith in it. Talking about their beliefs and faith, Shahrukh said, ‘We did not talk about Hindu-Muslim. My wife is a Hindu, I am a Muslim. And my children are Hindustani.’

Let us tell you that Shahrukh and Gauri had a love marriage and the actor had to go through a lot of trouble to impress Gauri. In an interview, Shahrukh said that Gauri had introduced him to her family by calling him Abhinav so that the family would think that Shahrukh was a Hindu. At the same time, when the marriage was done, Shahrukh also played a prank. He had said in front of Gauri’s family that now Gauri will always wear a burqa and her name would be Ayesha.
