Priya, I think it's a publicity stunt anyway. Plus he's not the only star detained , just don't get why he makes the news. I'm sure this will be all over CnN etc BBC on how wrong USA was in detaining him, etc..to me both were wrong. And I still not believe no one knew he was, but still, whether thy knew or not he should be treated the same, but hold not have been stopped were it based on his last name alone
And I don't like theatres tone putting India down..every country has issues on security. Snd the USA is no expection.

wat up, you seriously think that shahrukh can influence U.S security????

No, but I can't believe no one knew him. But then again, I don't know the whole story. And it's the second time. Snd in London he also was held on something, so not sure why he's the only star who gets detained so much , unless he as some shady side business

why don't I turn the table, what is happening in India every other day? 26/11 remember?. ROFL. you guys have captured a terrorist yet you cannot even hang him. 😆

Our borders are very much secured. lately, we don't even allow illegal immigrants. 😆


This is SRK related thread, y not to have a Srk Dialogue

"Udne ki baat parindey karte hai Mr.Theatre, Katey hue Par nahin - Baazigar"

Comparing 26/11 with 9/11 is like comparing Titatnic with my Tubo Cycle. Ur Borders were so Secure that in a DAY BROADLIGHT not 1 but 4 AEROPLANES are hijacked in front of ur Security.

Then before ur High Class Security could do anything, They r blown into 2 buildings, now this is the same thing "Zindagi Jhandava Phir Bhi Ghamdava" 😆 means "No Matter how much Weak is ur Security, still u will roar like "O We r World's No.1 Country" 🤣

f**k with Those AMERICANS who don't give a f**k about BOLLYWOOD, then what The f**k u doing in BOLLYWOOD SECTION, go lick Angreji Ass in Holly Sections...

Shah Rukh Khan is a Indian First then a Actor and No f**kING NATION has a RIGHT to DETAIN him like this for 2nd time... BHENCHOD TERRORIST ROK nahin paate baatein karenge apni Country ki 😡

for people who say "shahrukh should have to go though the same treatment that we have to go through", damn rite he should...but that isn't the problem...the frustrating thing about all this is that shahrukh was detained solely because of his muslim surname...This situation highlights the racism and injustice that is prevailent in America and that is the reason why most are pissed off about...

and sorry i find it extremely arrogant to those who say that America should do this considering it is there land, then if that is the case America should bloody respect other countries and stop throwing bombs at innocent families...like they did in Afghanistan a few weeks ago and killing 19 civilians a few weeks ago (includind some toddlers!)...After one incident it is ok for America to do this, but ignore the fact that every week they are slaughteing innocent people in other countries...
...wake up!



Racism, discrimination...whatever you call it. I know I'm probably gonna get a lot of flak for this but let me address the big elephant in the room. The fact is Muslims are notorious for being terrorists since the last decade. In the 50s/60s, Russians were discriminated against in the US for the same (communism...but you get my drift). This is a fact. I'd rather be stripped naked and racially profiled in the airport if the goal is to save the lives of many. When it comes to saving lives, I have no qualms with the security measures taken by US. I have brown skin and I'm sure if I had a Muslim last name, I'd be detained too. Sure, it would be annoying and sure I would complain...but at the end of the day, it's done for a noble cause. When the goal is to save lives, you can never be too careful. I don't blame US at all. Not for frisking SRK, not for racial profiling either.

But other stars have tht surname name too. Why no issue on tht. Why no issue on the common laymen who get held based on their name? Yet, security these days is tight. I do agree brown people in general are scrutinized more by customs. In some USA airports, but those smaller ones, it's wrong I agree. Even Sikhs get detained and asked to remove turban , which is a religious symbol, because customs scared they might hide contraband or something there...

But being held on name alone is wrong, but , with so many issues tht have happened people, ESP white Americans are scared and yes agree racist..I too not like it, but can't change they view. I guess thing is better to be save then sorry..even though don't agree on the reason

It could be a case that the detainers don't watch bollywood movies, and that the indian security guards, and other workers in the airport wouldn't have enought power to stop the detainers and explain who he is to them...Having known what being detained is like, you are taken quickly into another room and the detainers i can imagine would be pretty pissed off if you ask for an autograph..

Wow you must really think SRK has a shit load of influence and power over US Customs and Immigration. They must be fans you know? HOW IS IT POSSIBLE SOMEBODY DOESN'T KNOW SRK. 😲😲 ALL 7 billion people in the world have nothing better than to know about Mr. Shahrukh Khan..a Bollywood actor. They should be hanged if they don't. I mean come on ITS SRK. EVERYONE KNOWS HIM.
SRK goes to immigration..they say: oh my we're fans..lets detain you so you can make a publicity stunt out of it. YAYY what fun. 😃
US Border patrol is really going to waste resources and not focus on REAL security threats to make some sort of publicity stunt with SRK. Yeah. Mhmm.
😆😆😆
Ever think about this: maybe his name matches somebody who's on the banned to enter list? So he gets questioned again and again? He's not the only person this happens repeatedly to.

Well I never have been but some I know have, snd agree it's not pretty.the questioning ,grilling,etc..but it does happen. The outcry should be more on injustice. Still I stik to the view that he's not unknown.

I agree Himani. Sure, SRK is a publicity hungry cad. But there is no way the US security is in cahoots with him in this. There is no publicity machinery at work here, it was just a simple detention procedure. That conspiracy theory is ridiculous. 😆😆

SRK is not such a huge name. Why would everyone in the world know who SRK is? 😆


Now its another matter altogether that Indian media is milking this for all its worth. 🤪

I haven't been to Airport in my whole life, seen in movies, Airport officials always ask every visitor to the country "Purpose of your visit, Business or Pleasure?"

Now i m sure Those AIRPORT OFFICIALS must be knowing this: -

Shahrukh Khan who is much addressed as King Khan by his Fans will deliver a Lecture at Yale University on April 12. This has been a big honor for Shahrukh Khan to speak at yale university as earlier this was awarded only to head of the states and noble prize winners.

^^^ If not SRK, they must be knowing about YALE??
