It's really funny that everyone talks as if they know everything here especially the ones who makes things up based on interviews where the other person isn't even mentioned. Creating fantasies in their heads is not the same thing as facts.
It was in Anupama Chopra's book that Gauri was always a rich girl and never needed SRK's money. Man, her parents used to own factories that manufactured clothing that was sent to Europe. They had textile showrooms in Delhi. They owned a huge house in a posh part of the city which was a big thing back then and still is.
One of the driving forces of SRK wanting to be a big star was to make enough money so Gauri didn't have to downgrade her lifestyle by being with him. Her mother had even threatened to commit suicide because of who Gauri wanted to marry.
Regardless of what you think of her career or non-career, she married SRK when she was way richer than he was. None of these BW starlets like Priyanka would be sniffing around him if he wasn't rich and famous.
