SRK with Gauri
When Shah Rukh sent an impromptu message asking all his associates to come to a suburban five-star hotel on Monday afternoon, they were quite surprised as no one knew the reason behind the get-together. SRK not only sent a message to Red Chillies's SFX team and top officials but also to all his cooks, drivers, and clerks inviting them all to the do.
When all the members gathered at the hall, booked by Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri, they were in for a pleasant surprise. What followed was a huge celebration to celebrate the success of SRK's production company, Red Chillies. SRK, Gauri, Farah Khan, and other friends of SRK made it a point to celebrate and thank all those who have been associated with the actor's company and films.
Apart from the champagne, wine and a lavish spread of food personally selected by Shah Rukh and Gauri, bonus cheques were handed over to each and every member present there. (Incidentally, Vidhu Vinod Chopra usually follows this custom too, of distributing bonus to his employees, from the profits of hit films.)
Says a source present at the do, "Everyone was quiet surprised by SRK's gracious gesture. Initially, no one had a clue about the reason behind the party. But SRK is great. He decided to share the profits made by his company with everyone rather than enjoy it just by himself. This obviously is a kind gesture as it was not a part of any deal or contract that he'd pay a bonus to all his employees. He simply wants all the people working with him to enjoy and be a part of his success. Everyone was very surprised."
Adds another employee from Red Chillies Studio, "This is quite difficult to digest especially in an industry where we have to stand outside the producer's office to get our dues. Getting a share of the company's excess profits is really unheard of in this industry."
While the hall was packed and everyone was cheering and celebrating, SRK and Gauri personally thanked each employee for their services.
