When Gauri Khan wanted to leave Shah Rukh Khan; she didn't like to call herself just 'starwife'

Gauri Khan once opened up about being a 'starwife' at Karan Johar's show and said what she wanted to do as Shah Rukh Khan's wife.

Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan are the power couples in the Indian film industry. Gauri is called the 'queen bee' in Bollywood, and she is one of the biggest star wives.

Apart from being the biggest superstar wife, Gauri has also been a successful entrepreneur and has ventured into many businesses. 

Gauri first met Khan in 1984 in Delhi, before the start of his successful career in showbiz. Later the couple married in 1991 in a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony. Now both are proud parents of three kids- Aryan, Suhana and AbRam. 

However, Gauri looked a little miffed with the whole pretence about being a 'starwife wife'. She didn't want to be known as just that.

In one of the episodes of Koffee with Karan, Gauri candidly spoke about how the star wives were running away, and she was planning the same. 

When Karan asked Gauri to speak about being the biggest superstar wife, Gauri Khan said laughing, "You know, the thing is that most wives have run away or are planning to run away, I am including myself." This had left both, Sussanne and Karan Johar stumbling for words and Karan blurted out, "You have a happy marriage."

Later, Karan showed Gauri a clip of Jaya Bachchan, speaking about her. Jaya had then said, "I think Gauri is very comfortable with her position and her relationship, she looks comfortable. She is very secure, she knows that she is very important for him. You can see it. It's wonderful because I can really see him conveying that to her." 

Jaya also added, "These star wives have grown up with their star husbands and seen their journey. More than just husband-and-wife, they are friends and have given their husbands this creative space to see the highs and the lows, with utmost security."
