MASALA article on Gauri Khan's problems (2009):
Poor Little Rich Gauri
Is she on the verge of a nervous breakdown or is she
just a bratty star wife?
From being fiercely private to being Bollywood's biggest
party animal – Gauri Khan's recent uncharacteristic and
irregular behavior has left her husband and friends
shocked. So, what's really going on with the gorgeous
Mrs Khan?
Kicked out of London hotspot
Gauri Khan and friends were kicked out of famed London
club Tramp, leaving lines of illegal substances and
broken bottles of Champagne in their trail. Known for its
infamous celebrity guests, the club is no stranger to
nefarious activities, so the party of 10 must have been
doing something seriously bad to have to be escorted
out of the premises!
Partied till 7am at IPL without SRK
Despite her husband leaving South Africa mid IPL, Gauri
decided to stay back and party till 7am every night with
her four girlfriends. Fellow party animals were shocked
to see that the usually reserved Gauri was letting her
hair down on the dance floor, somthing no one had seen
her do before. Masala! heard someone quipping, 'We
want what she's on!'
Keeping bad company
From safe (and boring) K-Jo to wild (and bored) star
wives, Bhavna Pandey and Maheep Khan and hot (and
spoilt) south Mumbai IT girls Renu Chainani and Nandita
Mahtani – Gauri has changed her company drastically in
the past few years. SRK expressed how he did not
approve of their group activities and was heard telling
Gauri to 'grow up and accept the responsibilities that
fame comes along with'. His harsh lecture, however, fell
on deaf ears as she made plans to go to with the same
friends to Europe, Miami and then LA soon after!
When confronted about her irresponsible behavior and
the fact that SRK was sitting at home playing video
games with the kids, while Gauri was out partying and
neglecting the kids, the latter lashed out at SRK telling
him that he had no right to control her life and abused
him. So angry was the actor that he finally threatened to
leave for Mumbai with the kids if she didn't get her act
together!
Fed up of being the perfect mrs Khan
For years now Gauri has played the role of the perfect
star wife – dressing and acting the part, being seen with
the right people (only those who SRK approved of!) and
building an image that she exploited and enjoyed at the
time. She confided in a friend saying: 'I am tired of living
for the world of fans, I want to live for myself. Why can't
I?'
Breaking free or breaking down?
While many of Gauri's friends believe that she's just living
life for herself, other's are convinced that she is on the
verge of a nervous breakdown!
Masala! verdict
Tired and fed up of playing the perfect celeb spouce,
the allegedly bratty Gauri is trying to break free. A
friend of the couple told Masala! "Gauri now wants to live
life for herself. What's wrong with living in the fast lane?"
Nothing, we guess, as long as she's got her seatbelt on
and her hands firmly on the wheel!
