“The home holds a special place in our hearts, and it reflects our journey together — first of Shah Rukh and mine as a couple, and then as a family. The home has a lot of space — whether it’s the grand foyer as you enter or the lush garden which opens from the living room.” Image Credit: Airbnb

“The colour blocked walls are adorned with art pieces; the big windows ensure natural light in the house; knick-knacks that we have picked up during our travels across the world are placed across the home to bring alive that feeling of a warm and comfortable home,” she says. Image Credit: Airbnb

“Each element of the redesigned home has been hand-picked by me. The home is a reflection of our journey, as a couple and a family, and is filled with personal keepsakes from our life over the last three decades. I like to think of the home as an oasis of peace in the midst of the bustling capital city. The home is replete with richly textured walls, bold colours, exquisite tapestries, and lots of natural light. But the main source of inspiration for me while designing the home was my family, and the memories we have built together.” Image Credit: Airbnb

“While the entire home is special to me, there are two corners which stand out for our family. The first is what I like to call the ‘nostalgia wall’ in Shah Rukh’s and my bedroom. It is a selection of things which hold significance to us as a family.” Image Credit: Airbnb

Talking about a picture wall in the home, Gauri says: “Each photo is symbolic of a different time in our lives. There is one of Shah Rukh in his signature open arms pose while another one shows him and Aryan from the time they used to practice boxing together. Another one of my favourite photos that found its way to the wall is one of Shah Rukh and AbRam taken shortly after he was born.” Image Credit: Airbnb

“It was extremely difficult to choose from three decades’ worth of memories for the photo wall. At the same time, the process was a lot of fun because I spent a lot of time revisiting and reliving early memories looking through hundreds of pictures — from the time Shah Rukh and I had just started dating to when my kids were born and even to when they grew up and went to college.” Image Credit: Airbnb

Talking about what a perfect home means to her, Gauri says: “For me, a perfect home is a place that embodies love and warmth. It reflects the values and memories that a family shares together in these four walls.” Image Credit: Airbnb

“According to me, the ‘kookiest’ part of the house would be our entrance foyer. There is a framed picture of Shah Rukh in his signature open arms pose to welcome everyone who visits our home.” Image Credit: Airbnb

Gauri Khan and Shah Rukh Khan’s courtship and marriage is straight out of a Bollywood romance. There was love, rebellion and resistance to battle. According to Bollywood folklore, Shah Rukh met Gauri in 1984 and love blossomed. He was smitten by her and they dated for over six years in Delhi. Her parents weren’t too keen to marry off their daughter to an actor hopeful, but love prevailed. On October 25 1991, the two got married in a Hindu wedding ceremony and they now have three children together — Aryan, Suhana and AbRam. Image Credit:
