Shah Rukh Khan jokes he is not allowed to say anything about Gauri Khan's choices at Mannat: 'Ghar ke baare mein kuch nahin bol sakte'

Shah Rukh Khan has given fans a rare and funny peek into life at Mannat, saying his wife, Gauri Khan, runs the house and he has no say in how it looks. The actor made the remarks at the launch of a property in Dubai, where he also spoke about why having a home of his own is so special.

What Shah Rukh Khan said about life at Mannat

Mannat is among Mumbai’s best-known landmarks, with fans and tourists lining up outside daily for a picture or a glimpse of the star. Yet very little is known about what goes on inside. At the Dubai event, host Karan Johar asked the actor what he is not allowed to do in his own house.Shah Rukh Khan replied that he can hardly make any decisions at home. According to him, the house is Gauri Khan’s domain, and topics like WiFi, food, colours, art, stairs, lifts, lights and furniture are all off limits for comment.He said, "In my home, I’m not allowed to do anything. Hamare ghar ke ander, Gauri ke ghar ke baare mein kuch nahin bol sakte. Hum na wifi ke baare mein bol sakte, na bistar pe khana kha sakte, na colours ke baare mein bol sakte, na paintings ke baare mein bol sakte, sidhi ke baare mein, lift ke baare men, chhat ke baare mein, chandelier ke baare mein, light ke baare mein, hum kuch bhi nahin bol sakte. (In our home, we cannot talk about Gauri’s choices.

We can’t discuss the WiFi, eating on the bed, colours, paintings, staircase, elevator, ceiling, chandelier or the lighting; we can’t talk about any of it)."

Shah Rukh Khan says, 'Kya penthouse banaya hai Gauri'

The superstar added a joke about his future plans as well. He said, "Hum sukoon se baithte hain aur ghar ko enjoy karte han. ‘Gauri ne kya ghar banaya hai yaar.’ Abhi mere ko toh problem yeh hai ki penthouse mein jaake bhi yahi bolna padega. ‘Kya penthouse banaya hai Gauri’.

(We just sit back, relax and enjoy the home. We admire Gauri for what she has created. Now, my only concern is that even when we’ll move to penthouse, we’ll have to admire that as well.

What a penthouse Gauri has designed)."

Why a home matters so much to SRK

Beyond the humour, Shah Rukh Khan spoke from the heart about what a house means to him. He lost his parents early in life and had no home of his own until he married Gauri. After that, owning a house became one of his biggest dreams.

He said he loves his films, his family and his work, but a place to call his own holds a special corner in his heart.The superstar also feels a home offers comfort in good times and bad. After dealing with troubles outside, a person can come back, rest and gather the strength to face the world again. He recalled that the first house he and Gauri bought stretched their budget, and the same was true when they purchased Mannat.

Shah Rukh Khan’s next film

On the work front, Shah Rukh Khan is awaiting the release of his upcoming film ‘King’, which is set to arrive in theatres on December 24.
