Shah Rukh Khan and kids Aryan, Suhana, AbRam have ‘secret door' they enter from at Gauri Khan's restaurant
Gauri Khan's Mumbai restaurant Torii has a special entryway for her husband Shah Rukh Khan and their kids Aryan, Suhana and AbRam. In an interview with SCREEN, the restaurant's head chef, Stefan Gadit, talked all about the 'secret door' for the Khans and their favourite dishes at the restaurant.

Stefan revealed that Shah Rukh and the family often dine in at the restaurant or order home when they can't come there. He also revealed that there's a special 'secret door' just for the Khans to enter and exit the place. He also stated that the doorway is accessed only by a few celebrities and, of course, the Khans. 'Not everybody has access to the secret doorway; it's for the Khans,' said the chef.
In the same interview, the head chef spoke about how AbRam often orders food from the restaurant and how Suhana and Aryan hang out there with their friends. He claimed that Shah Rukh and Gauri's youngest son liked the sushi there, while the actor himself liked the lamb chops, and Gauri liked the Thai curry. Recently, they also celebrated Shah Rukh's manager Pooja Dadlani's birthday there.
Shah Rukh was last seen in the 2023 films Pathaan, Jawan and Dunki. He took a break from filming after that and is currently shooting for Siddharth Anand's King. The film will also star his daughter Suhana in her theatrical debut. She made her acting debut with Netflix's The Archies, directed by Zoya Akhtar. Abhishek Bachchan also stars in the film.
Gauri's restaurant Torii opened last year on Valentine's Day. It was also featured on the reality show, Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives, with Sussanne Khan, Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Pandey, Neelam Kothari and Seema Sajdeh attending the opening.

No rings, no roles, no rules: The freedom of Relationship Anarchy
There was a time when we danced to songs like 'Is pyaar ko main kya naam doon,' binge-watched television serials with titles like 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai,' and cried over movies like 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!' At some point, a Bollywood scene has probably left you teary-eyed with that eternal question: Main tumhari kya lagti hoon, Raj? Or Rohit? Or Deepak?advertisementSee where we're going with this?For the longest time, naming a relationship was everything. Are we friends? Best friends? Lovers? Partners?Because giving something a name made it real. It legitimised it's 2025, and not having an answer might just be the Relationship Anarchy. No, it's not a TikTok trend cooked up by commitment-phobic twenty-somethings. And no, it doesn't mean you burn all your love letters and ghost your exes in the name of chaos. It is less about breaking hearts and more about breaking the even is Relationship Anarchy?It is precisely a philosophy that rejects the conventional relationship labels.'Relationship Anarchy is a philosophy that rejects traditional, hierarchical relationship structures and societal norms. Like all anarchist principles, it emphasises individual autonomy, mutual respect and the freedom to customise relationships without regular rules or expectations,' says Ruchi Ruuh, Delhi-based relationship philosophy sees all relationships as inherently valuable, whether romantic, platonic, sexual or family. Instead of assuming roles, it invites you to co-create relationships that fit the needs of the that just polyamory with better branding?Not quite. Polyamory usually means loving more than one person, but with some structure, like having a main partner or planning things out. It's entirely possible to love more than one person deeply at the same time. Emotional intimacy, honesty, and transparency are core Anarchy takes it and author Aanya Jai breaks it down beautifully: 'RA comes from the Greek root meaning 'without ruler.' It means no one makes the rules for your relationships but you and the people involved. That's it. No scripts. No templates. Just intent.'Love, actually, is custom-built"There are as many kinds of relationships as there are people," says Jai. "Relationship Anarchy simply acknowledges that. It doesn't try to squeeze love into a ready-made box."Commitment in this world isn't about rings, cohabitation, or even exclusivity. It could be daily check-ins or showing up when it matters. Or it could be something as unspoken and fluid as sharing ramen on a rainy night and a Netflix password on the it may seem more complicated to some (which maybe it is), it's also philosophy doesn't ditch commitment; it just decouples it from traditional packaging. 'It's not about avoiding responsibility,' says Ruuh, 'it's about redefining it.'When you hear many couples, each day, breaking up due to rigid laws of relationships, Relationship Anarchy gives you the 'much-needed' alternative, the flexibility to love online validationIf you are someone who thrives on social media validation, this one might not be for you. There's no big reveal, no diamond ring, no TikTok trend. "But that's exactly the point," says Ruuh. "It isn't competing with traditional relationships. It just opts out of the performative circus."'It can feel invisible or dull in front of the traditional celebration of love, but it's the choice the love anarchists make. We see the younger generation is challenging traditional relationship models, and we see a growing acceptance around these changes. Having said that, it's not for everyone,' Ruuh further it Gen Z dodging accountability?It seems like a fair question, especially when Relationship Anarchy gets mistaken for flaky texting habits and ghosting with a philosophy. But true relationship anarchists would argue actually demands more emotional accountability,' Ruuh says. 'You can't fall back on roles or rules, you have to show up with clarity and care every time.'"Modern relationship models often romanticise exclusivity and longevity," says Aanya. "But history shows us that fluid, community-based bonds have always existed and thrived."Perhaps the best way to understand Relationship Anarchy is through stories, not definitions. Like Maya and Zayn, who weren't dating, but weren't not dating either. Their bond had no label, but it had warmth, consistency, and an unspoken understanding. It worked. Until it didn't. Until it did again. And maybe that's the biggest myth? That RA people don't do what many may assume is that the relationship philosophy doesn't let you get attached or love anyone, but that's a myth. In fact, most people who believe in the idea of Relationship Anarchy are incredibly intentional about the way they love. They're just not interested in stuffing those feelings into one-size-fits-all in a world where even monogamous marriages can turn toxic or coercive under the guise of permanence, maybe it's time we stopped romanticising any model Jai puts it, 'Every relationship model has its shadows, Relationship Anarchy included. But when we allow space for nuance, we also allow space for healing, for freedom, and for real choice advertisement

Fitness freak Shah Rukh Khan has one food weakness, and it is his favourite. Gauri Khan's restaurant chef tells all
In the heart of Mumbai, Gauri Khan's upscale restaurant, Torii, has emerged as a favorite destination for the city's elite and Bollywood celebrities. Known for its sophisticated ambiance and eclectic menu, the establishment even made a notable appearance in the previous season of Netflix India's popular show Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. Among its regular patrons is none other than superstar Shah Rukh Khan, whose frequent visits with his family add a glamorous touch to the restaurant's profile. Head Chef Stefan Gadit, who helms the kitchen at Torii, recently opened up in an interview with SCREEN magazine, offering a glimpse into the dining habits of the Khan family. According to him, Shah Rukh Khan often chooses the signature lamb chops, a dish that has clearly become a personal favorite. "Shah Rukh Khan has enjoyed the lamb chops we serve here; that's his usual order,' he told the magazine.

This level of consideration has made Torii a reliable retreat for the family. Chef Gadit shared that the Khans are frequent visitors, often stopping by to dine in person. On days when their schedule doesn't permit a visit, they regularly place delivery orders to enjoy the restaurant's offerings in the comfort of their home. The youngest in the family, AbRam, is said to be fond of the restaurant's sushi, a testament to the wide variety of Asian dishes Torii serves. Suhana Khan, Shah Rukh's daughter, has also dropped by several times, occasionally bringing along friends for casual meals. Shah Rukh, too, has been seen at the restaurant, usually in the company of Gauri and other family members. Notably, they even marked Pooja Dadlani's anniversary at the venue, further highlighting its significance in their personal celebrations. Gauri Khan, who is known for her design acumen and entrepreneurial ventures, plays an active role in the restaurant's operations. Chef Gadit emphasized that she often provides feedback and suggestions, contributing meaningfully to the restaurant's day-to-day decisions. There's a healthy, collaborative rapport between her and the management team, which has helped the business thrive. Interestingly, the chef recounted his initial reluctance to include Thai curry—Gauri's favorite dish—on the menu. He felt the dish was too common and widely available to feature at Torii. However, respecting her preferences, the team eventually added it as a dedication to her, underlining her influence on the menu curation. However, in April, Torii faced criticism when YouTuber Sarthak Sachdeva accused them of serving adulterated paneer. In his viral video, iodine was applied to paneer pieces, causing them to darken—a reaction he suggested indicated impurities. The restaurant swiftly responded, clarifying that the change in color was due to soy-based starch components in the dish and not a compromise on quality. They stood firm on the authenticity of their ingredients and reaffirmed their commitment to high standards. Torii continues to be a blend of celebrity charm, culinary finesse, and uncompromised quality—firmly held together by Gauri Khan's signature touch.
