Re: SRK deatined at US airport
Just another publicity stunt by SRK 
I cant believe Indian public/media/govt are making a fuss about this!!! I mean, wuts the big deal if he is gone through a routine check which took a lil longer (1 hour) cuz the flag was up with its name. Why dont they make a hue & cry when a common man has to stay there for 3-4 hours. This shouldnt be made a real big deal!

Indian gov't did not make a pigs squeak when India's Defense Minister George Fernandes was on official visit to US with full protocol and was detained strip searched at Dulles airport twice.
When Deputy Secretary of State Strobe Talbott revelead in his book only then George Fernandes confessed and said he will never go to US again...
You think SRK counts in grand scheme of things..
Shah Rukh khan wants some free publicity for his new movie "My name is Khan". Nobody in India cares about this incident other than his buddies in politics and in the media.

Re: SRK deatined at US airport

Re: SRK deatined at US airport
Actually, its good that someone like Khan got screwed at the airport. Let’s face it, his name comes up under some "lets find the muzzies" radar and he gets hold up at for 2 hours? WTF?

Before you start jumping up and down in joy, let me point out that he was subjected to this treatment because he was a Muslim and not because he was an Indian.
As an Indian, I am not amused. As a Muslim, what do you think ?
Re: SRK deatined at US airport
Amazing U-turn by the US authorities…
*(I do not want an apology, says Shahrukh | India News - Times of India)
MUMBAI: **An apologetic US administration on Sunday asked actor Shahrukh Khan if he would accept a “sorry” for his two-hour detention at Newark airport. Shahrukh is unrelenting. “I don’t want an apology. I just want to go back to my country,” he told TOI. **
Within hours of his detention after his name flashed on the immigration officer’s computer screen for a check, US authorities made a turn-around, saying the superstar was not detained because of his surname but his missing baggage.
Shahrukh said, “There were 20 other people in the same (detention) room. Was even their baggage missing? I was clearly told that my name flashed on their computer and therefore they had to question me.”
He agreed that procedure had to be followed, “but the system is a very unfortunate one”. “When you have issued me a visa and imprints of my fingers and my photograph are on it, I am sure it is there in your system. Why do I have go through the ordeal?”
The actor, who was never allowed to take his personal bodyguard to the US with him for lack of a work permit, often finds it difficult to move around in public places.
“I have a problem with my shoulder (he had a surgery on his shoulder) and if my bodyguard is around he becomes a great help. Unfortunately he does not get a visa. I could easily take him there on a tourist visa, but I don’t believe in breaking the rules.”
Shahrukh said he had been uncomfortable going to America after facing “problems” in the past. “Post-9/11, one could understand and one did not complain. But this time it was a bit too much. I have travelled to other countries. I never faced any problem in the UK where I am treated like a state guest. They escort me to the car.”*
