Filmmaker Shoojit Sircar, who has spent decades in the entertainment industry, recently reminisced about his early encounters with Shah Rukh Khan during an interview on Unfiltered with Samdish. Reflecting on their time in the theatre scene, Shoojit shared that he often saw Shah Rukh, who was then a budding actor, visiting Connaught Place with Gauri Khan for coffee dates.

Shoojit Sircar said, “Shah Rukh I know from theatre group, he was in Barry John group, I was there, I didn’t do plays with him, I was there with them."

He went on to add, “Connaught Place mein jagah hai Depaul’s Cafe, woh wahan aata tha… Gauri [Khan] ke saath coffee peene… Romance karte dekha hai, play main maine nahi dekha (There is a place called Depaul Cafe and he used to come over there with Gauri that time. I have seen him romance but I have never seen his play)."

Shah Rukh and Gauri were married on October 25, 1991. Shah Rukh has previously shared that he fell in love with Gauri when he was just 18, and she was only 14. He knew from their first meeting that she was the one for him. Six years after their wedding, they welcomed their first son, Aryan Khan. Their daughter, Suhana Khan, was born on May 22, 2000, followed by their youngest son, AbRam Khan, born via surrogacy on May 27, 2013.

Shah Rukh recently celebrated his 59th birthday, and Gauri shared a heartfelt moment from the celebration, posting a photo of him cutting his birthday cake with the caption: “A memorable evening last night with friends and family… happy birthday.”
