Shah Rukh Khan is known not only for his cinematic achievements but also for his deep affection for animals. Over the years, the superstar has reportedly shared his home with several pet dogs, including Hulk, Kai, Dash, and Juicy.
Those close to the actor have often said that his pets provided companionship and comfort during stressful periods.
Gauri Khan’s uncle recalls the story
A viral video features Gauri Khan’s uncle recounting an incident involving a Chinese Pekingese he had gifted to Gauri. According to him, Shah Rukh became extremely attached to the dog. He said, “Gauri is my niece, my elder sister's daughter. I had gifted her a dog; it was a Chinese Pekingese. Shah Rukh, too, grew to love that dog deeply.
Once SRK was away on a film shoot when, in his absence, something happened to the dog, and it passed away.
The domestic staff wrapped the dog's body in a fine cloth and carried it down to the seashore. They dug a grave there and buried it on the spot.”
SRK's 2:30 AM decision
Gauri’s uncle then described Shah Rukh’s emotional reaction after returning home late at night and learning that the dog had already been buried.He further revealed, “When Shah Rukh Khan returned home past midnight, he asked about the dog.
He was informed that it had already been buried. At 2:30 in the morning, he woke up the staff members and demanded, 'Show me exactly where you laid him to rest.' They dug up the grave, brought the dog's body back to the house, placed it in the backyard courtyard and marked the spot.
He even wept. He confronted them, asking, 'How dare you simply cast aside my dog like that?' 'He is to stay with us, whether he is alive or dead.'”An old photograph previously shared by Gauri, featuring her and Shah Rukh with one of their dogs, is believed to show the same Chinese Pekingese mentioned in the story.On the work front, Shah Rukh is currently filming 'King', one of the most anticipated projects in Hindi cinema.
