Shah Rukh Khan is often celebrated as one of the most loyal husbands in Bollywood, known for his deep affection and commitment to his wife, Gauri Khan. However, there was a time when rumors swirled about his alleged relationship with one of India's biggest film stars. Despite his strong bond with Gauri, whispers in the industry suggested that Shah Rukh had a close connection with this leading actress, leading to media speculation and public intrigue. Over the years, SRK has consistently dismissed such rumors, maintaining his devotion to his family and personal life.
Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra starred together in the 2011 film Don 2, a sequel to Don. During that period, rumors circulated that the co-stars were secretly dating. The speculation intensified as SRK and Priyanka were frequently seen together at late-night outings and public events. However, Shah Rukh, who was married to Gauri Khan at the time, firmly denied the link-up rumors. He explained that his bond with Priyanka was purely a close friendship and nothing more. Despite the gossip, SRK remained committed to his wife and publicly dismissed the claims.
VIRAL VIDEO OF SHAH RUKH KHAN AND PRIYANKA CHOPRA
A video of Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra hosting the Filmfare Awards in 2013 has recently gone viral on Reddit. The video has sparked renewed interest and discussion among fans, reminding them of the memorable chemistry between the two stars during the event.
In the video, Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra can be seen addressing the rumors surrounding their alleged romance. Priyanka humorously comments that even if she's seen near Bandra, people assume they are secretly meeting. The duo light-heartedly acknowledges the gossip, with SRK jokingly adding to the banter, clearly dismissing the rumors in a playful manner in front of wife, Gauri and daughter, Suhana.
The video begins with Shah Rukh Khan asking Priyanka Chopra, "Aaj kal naya kya chal raha hai?" To which Priyanka responds, "Abhi tak toh kuch nahi, kal subah pata chalega." SRK then inquires, "Kal kya hone wala hai?" Priyanka replies, "Kyunki aajkal jab bhi hum milte hain, kuch na kuch nonsense likh dete hain log. Main Bandra se guzar bhi rahi hoti hoon toh log likh dete hain ki hum chupke-chupke mil rahe hain." SRK, acknowledging the gossip, says, "Hmm, maine bhi yeh note kiya tha yaar. Main soch raha tha ki iska ek reason hai, aur voh yeh hai ki hum dono ke beech mein bohot saari cheezein common hain, isliye log confuse ho jaate hain." The light-hearted exchange playfully addresses the rumors while highlighting their strong friendship.

As the video resurfaced on social media, it sparked a range of reactions from netizens. Some praised Shah Rukh Khan for his witty responses and playful banter with Priyanka Chopra. However, others criticized him, accusing him of infidelity and cheating on his wife, Gauri Khan. A section of social media users also expressed their disapproval, pointing out that Shah Rukh and Priyanka seemed unbothered by the rumors surrounding their alleged affair, especially with Gauri sitting in the audience alongside their daughter, Suhana Khan. The video reignited debates about celebrity relationships and the line between public persona and personal life.
One comment said, "Look at everyone's reaction. I don't think the audience was ready for this", another wrote, "I literally can't believe just how brash these 2 were... like dude why are you pretending something is NOT going on when EVERYONE and their mothers know that something is definitely going on?!! and I'm pretty sure at this point it was an open secret so even more wtf."
Another comment said, "Because it was 2013, SM was still at its nascent stage. So doing such shit, still meant that you could reach a large set of audience and make them believe that whatever they are reading in the press is fake as both the people involved are openly joking about this."
PRIYANKA CHOPRA BLUSHES ON THE NAME OF SHAH RUKH KHAN
In another video circulating on Instagram, Priyanka Chopra appears on the popular show 'Aap Ki Adalat', where a fan asks her to react to the name of King Khan of Bollywood. The fan expresses that he just wants to see her expression when she repeats Shah Rukh Khan's name. Priyanka's playful and charming response adds a fun moment to the segment, sparking further interest and amusement among her fans.
In response to the video, many social media users shared strong opinions, with some expressing harsh criticism towards Priyanka Chopra. One comment read, "Shameless to smile at the name of a married man. She didn’t leave Bollywood, she was kicked out." Another user went on to accuse Priyanka of trying to publicly flaunt her connection with Shah Rukh Khan, stating, "He badly wanted to tell the world she’s with SRK. Even on Komal Nahata’s and Boman Irani’s shows, she did some cringe-worthy stuff. And finally, at the 2013 award show with SRK. She was clearly after SRK’s money, not him. I wonder if he ever loved her or just used her for sexual pleasure. I used to adore her and Kangana, and still respect their craft, but they were clearly after the money of these stars, not the men themselves." The comments reflect the intense scrutiny and judgment the two actors faced regarding their rumored relationship, with some expressing disillusionment with Priyanka's actions at the time.
