SRK was born into a Muslim family. Shah Rukh Khan's parents, Mir Taj Mohammed Khan and Lateef Fatima Khan lived in New Delhi. His maternal grandfather Iftikhar Ahmed worked as the port's chief engineer at Mangalore throughout the first five years of his childhood.

Mir Taj Mohammed Khan, Shah Rukh Khan's father was a Peshawar-based activist for Indian independence who worked with the Khudai Khidmatgar a nonviolent resistance group headed by Abdul Ghaffar Khan (also known as Bacha Khan or the Frontier Gandhi) that fought for a united and independent India.

Abdul Ghaffar Khan's devotee Mir belonged to the Indian National Congress. Khan's paternal family was still residing in Peshawar's Qissa Khwani Bazaar's Shah Wali Qataal neighbourhood as of 2010.

After India was divided in 1947 Mir relocated to New Delhi. Lateef Fatima Khan's mother was the granddaughter of a top government engineer. In 1959 his parents tied the knot. On Twitter Khan identified himself as half Pathan (father) half Hyderabadi (mother) and some Kashmiri (grandmother).

SRK claims that the his family were from Afghanistan with his paternal grandfather Mir Jan Muhammad Khan. Contrary to the assertion that his grandfather was from Afghanistan his paternal cousins in Peshawar assert that the family speaks Hindko and is from Kashmir.

Shah Rukh Khan was raised in New Delhi's Rajendra Nagar neighbourhood. The family was middle class and lived in rented apartments. His father operated a number of businesses including a restaurant. Even before they could witness him reaching the heights of stardom the star's parents passed away when he was still a very young child. His mother passed away in 1991 due to complications from diabetes while his father passed away from cancer in 1981.

Shahnaz Lalarukh his older sister who was born in 1960 developed depression following the passing of their parents and Khan was tasked with taking care of her. Shehnaz is the only sister SRK. She lives with the actor's family and is six years older than him.

Education, School, College, and Qualification

Khan initially wanted to pursue a career in sports but he was unable to do so due to a shoulder injury he sustained in his early years.

Instead, he played theatre roles in his childhood and won accolades for his Bollywood impersonations among which his favourite actors were Dilip Kumar, Amitabh Bachchan and Mumtaz.

Amrita Singh a Bollywood actress was one of his childhood pals and a fellow actor. Khan studied economics from 1985 to 1988 at Hansraj College although he spent most of his time at Delhi's Theatre Action Group (TAG) where he trained in acting under Barry John, a prominent theatre director and acting coach.

After Hansraj, he enrolled in Jamia Millia Islamia's master's program in mass communication but quit to focus on his acting career. He also went to Delhi's National School of Drama when he was just starting out in Bollywood. 

Shah Rukh Khan's Wife - Gauri Khan

Shahrukh Khan Marriage Tring

It's appropriate that the real-life love tale of Bollywood's king of romance Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri was no less than a lavish Yash Chopra production. At a party hosted by a mutual acquaintance in 1984, the enduring pair first connected.

He first didn't ask Gauri to dance when he saw her dancing with another man. Shah Rukh Khan's age was 18 when he fell in love with Gauri Khan. She was 14 years old at the time.

The actor once admitted that they had their first date in a Delhi nightclub. Their first date lasted only five minutes and the two ordered cold drinks.

Shah Rukh Khan had to have three of these encounters before he was willing to ask for her phone number. It's interesting to note that Shah Rukh Khan's wife, Gauri Khan, is his first and last girlfriend.

He once admitted that during their romance they only had access to their landline phone numbers for communication. Because Gauri's brother would frequently answer the phone Shah Rukh Khan would speak in a girl's voice anytime he wanted to call Gauri.

Gauri's last name was Chibber and she comes from a Punjabi family with military history. Her family initially opposed the two when they told their families about their love. The actor allegedly pretended to be a Hindu for five years in an effort to persuade them. Gauri wasn't really enthusiastic about Shah Rukh Khan's acting career.

She once left without telling Shah Rukh she was going to Mumbai following a quarrel. The actor followed her and the couple later reconciled close to the Mumbai shore. The following event was a notable wedding on October 25, 1991. The marriage took place a long time before SRK rose to fame as a great Bollywood performer. According to reports the actor leased a suit for his wedding from Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman's set.

Gauri had provided Shahrukh with unwavering support and the two are currently co-presidents of Red Chillies Entertainment SRK's production and distribution company.

Shah Rukh Khan's Affair

Juhi Chawla

Together Shah Rukh and Juhi Chawla appeared in more than ten films including Darr, Yes Boss, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani, Raam Jaane, Duplicate, Paheli, and Bhootnath among others.

The audience adored their chemistry. Long ago there were rumors that Juhi and Shah Rukh were dating but Juhi recently stated in an interview that they are simply good friends.

Priyanka Chopra

SRK and Priyanka Chopra finally get along while filming Don 2. She started getting Shahrukh's recommendations for casting her in the movies. To attend house parties in Mannat, Shahrukh called Priyanka.

She spent a lot of time with Gauri at the party. With this new closeness, everyone including Karan Johar was perplexed. Gauri however didn't consider it seriously.

PeeCee began to frequently visit Mannat along with hosting concerts together going to film festivals and even making evident attempts to secure commercial endorsements for themselves as a couple.

The love story between SRK and PeeCee was discussed in the media and in B-town. However when this true love tale came to an end they both denied everything.

Since his relationship with Priyanka had become widely known they appeared to enjoy each other's company frequently, attending events together and also admitted their feelings for one another in interviews. Rumours reached an extraordinary level that made them exceedingly challenging to trust.

There were rumours that his relationship with Gauri was about to end that Priyanka had stopped going out with him that SRK had spent millions of rupees on a new apartment for her and other things. The biggest rumor around was that they secretly wed although it is unverified.

Back then both of them were well-known celebrities who enjoyed great success. Everyone talked about them making it nearly difficult to hide any of them. In one of the episodes of Koffee with Karan, Priyanka took the read between the lines to approach giving every indication that a significant incident had occurred between the two and that they were no longer speaking.

Controversies

Mannat Bungalow Controversy

Reports state that BJP MP Poonam Mahajan has objected to the ramp near Shah Rukh Khan's Mannat mansion which is purportedly unlawfully built and has long been the subject of dispute. In a letter to the BMC Poonam requested that they remove the ramp in front of actor Shah Rukh Khan's Bandra mansion Mannat. Residents are said to have constantly protested to the BMC about the actor's encroachment on their route. They received assistance from Poonam who addressed a letter to the BMC.

Lata Mangeshkar Funeral Controversy

Shah Rukh Khan an actor has recently come under unwarranted criticism when a video of him saying prayers at Lata Mangeshkar's burial went viral online.

According to Islamic custom, the actor was observed lifting his hands in dua before blowing in the wind to ward off the evil eye. Most people praised the gesture as evidence of India's diversity but two lawmakers said the actor spat.

He briefly took off his mask and made a facial expression that some ignorant internet users mistook for spitting. The truth is that Shah Rukh Khan blew air after doing a dua which is something many Muslims do as a holy ritual.

SRK highlighted in the interview how students were required to write an essay on My Country at school. He believed it to be improper because we are Indian citizens and do not possess it.

Ownership does not imply that this is our India he remarked. We must do it for the sake of the nation. People who do not believe they are a part of India are referred to as anti-nationals or anti-social. Because my family has fought for my country I am sad. Reading about such events makes me feel even more depressed since it contradicts what my father once advised me to do: Keep this country free as I gave it to you.

Intolerance Controversy

Shah Rukh Khan became embroiled in a significant issue a few months ago as a result of his remark about severe intolerance in India during an event. Numerous rallies were held in response to the problem against the actor and his recently released movie Dilwale.

Although SRK initially defended his remark by claiming that it was misunderstood the actor chose a completely different path this time. Khan was once again questioned about the protests and anti-SRK efforts at the recent Fan trailer release event. The actor responded with a smile The only appeal I would make when watching Mumbai Indians' game against KKR is 'Out'... I won't engage in this. Freedom of expression includes the option to be silent as well.

Calling Ram Charan 'Idli'

At the pre-wedding celebration of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, Shah Rukh Khan called upon Telugu star Ram Charan to join him to dance on stage. The latter's makeup artist, Zeba Hassan, posted a story on Instagram where she stated that Shah Rukh Khan referred to him as 'idli' as he was calling him on stage. This did not go down well with netizens, who harshly condemmed him for using a derogatory term towards south Indians.
