What does the name Gauri Khan evoke? Elegance? Yes. Poise? Certainly. Sophistication
Indubitably. She’s a quiet, creative power who rarely courts the spotlight, yet commands it
when she enters a room — even when on the arm of her global superstar husband, Shah Rukh Khan.
Chic in monochromes or neutrals, which betray her design sensibility, she’s spotted at design weeks, on art panels, or launching new collections, or experience centres — like her latest interactive store in Delhi, designed as a curated living space, not a typical showroom merely showcasing her furniture alongside curated art. Hers, however, was not an overnight success story.
There was a time she may have been known just as SRK’s wife. But slowly, steadily, she carved her way out of that seemingly ignominious ‘star wife’ bracket, allowing her work to shine and building a formidable niche for herself.
Gauri is known to be meticulous in detailing, discrete in her functioning, and selective about the work she takes on. Today, as a producer, and entrepreneur, as well, she commands the respect of being one of India’s most sought-after names in interior design.
