Shah Rukh Khan has steered away from rumours of all kinds for a long time... while there have been stories about his sexuality, which he has laughed off, he was not linked to too many heroines barring co stars Juhi Chawla who is now one of his closest friends and Kajol with whom he shared a fabulous onscreen chemistry in films like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge. He never even posed with his heroines for covers of magazines thought the media chased him for it.

Now with rumours doing the rounds about both SRK and Priyanka Chopra, it is now said that the two had hit it off during the various stage shows that they did together earlier in her career. And then there was the story about how his wife Gauri did not like Priyanka Chopra's presence at the party hosted by King Khan during Eid celebrations because she did not like Khan Khan's increasing proximity with her.

Quiz SRK directly on how he got linked to all these women and he gives the stereotyped answer.

"I do not know where these rumours erupted from! I Gauri believes in me and that’s the reason we have been together all these years. Priyanka is a good actress..." he trails off.

SRK may have said that there's nothing official about it like the cola ad that he endorsed long back but the actor-producer's preference for this girl seems to have led to differences with his wife. Till this time King Khan seems to have been the only man for his wife unlike the other Khans - Salman, Aamir and Saif  - who have changed girlfriends and wives regularly, but we assure you that the media is surely not going to stop at this for the moment.

And with SRK making multiple appearances to promote his film Ra.One in the coming few days, he surely will have to be ready with a few more answers and then again when he comes out to promote Don 2 where he shares screen space and some press conferences as well with Priyanka Chopra.

Is a certain Shahid Kapoor reading this?
