    • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCSZ9YK6FzE - In this the host asks shahrukh why he does not fool around with other young actresses , he said and I quote : "There is peaceful quality, an inherent calm which Gauri has. I dont want to be responsible to take this peace away from her" I was stunned at his words. At shahrukh's wisdom. He had so much clarity at such a young age.
