Shah Rukh Khan's wife, Gauri Khan, has been chosen as the cover girl of Vogue India for its January edition. The issue will hit newsstands on December 20.
The pictures were shot against the eight-floor extension of the Khans' sprawling home, Mannat.
'This is not my profession,' Gauri said. 'It has to be something really new and unusual to make me want to do something like this. I did enjoy the shoot but to be honest, I wouldn't do it very often."

"This collaboration between Gauri and Vogue India is a natural fit," says Priya Tanna, Editor Vogue India. "It is her first solo cover and a coup of sorts for Vogue. That she is stylish, enigmatic, and poised is known, but at the shoot we saw another side of her, that of a cover girl. Even in the frames she shares with Shah Rukh, she holds her own impressively. She offers delightful peeks into her life, her wardrobe and her man. Gauri is a true Voguette."
Gauri is that rare breed: a woman so comfortable in her own skin that she dresses only for herself. “Her look has really evolved over the last few years,” says close friend Karan Johar. She’s really come into her own, and in my mind is the most stylish woman in India. Gauri has this amazing ability to put things together – she has a great eye.”

Adds London-based photographer Chris Craymer, “Gauri is very charming and has great personal style. She has the great gift of being self assured and confident in front of the camera, and off-set has a great sense of humor.” Adds Chris, “Gauri looked amazing. After meeting her and Shah Rukh I am eager to watch an Indian film.”
