Will go to US again, says SRK



Mumbai, Aug. 18: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, who returned from the US on Tuesday after an “ordeal” at the immigration at Newark airport, described the incident as “no big deal” and said he will go there again if work demands.

Khan, 43, said he did not expect any special treatment because of his celebrity status but found his detention and questioning at the airport in New Jersey “strange and irrelevant.”

“I’m not angry about the incident but it was embarrassing. The questions asked by the authorities were strange and irrelevant,” Khan said at his home in Bandra.

babu kingu... naaku telsu naayana.. still that person need to clear customs for his all baggage, immigration and port of entry.. etc formalities..

the only exception is the travelers do not go through TSA commercial airline rules and since they get to use chartered flights the airports that receive these high profile guests know the person in advance. hope you got it. :D

http://ibnlive.in.com/news/us-overdid-it-with-srk-chidambara m/99384-3.html

US 'overdid' it with SRK: Chidambaram

I agree with Chidambaram.


The US version seem to be fishy and inaccurate. The reason they gave saying they took him for screening since his bags are not arrived is lame and I dont understand why they have to take him to a separate room to perform that check. The port of entry happens before bag collection area and in baggage area phones are allowed and we do have coin phones available in baggage carousal.

The area from arrival gate to port of entry stamping area is sterile and secured by customs and patrol control dept where the port of entry windows present is prohibited to use phones or any PDA devices. But as per SRK they took him from the port of entry point itself. But the version they are telling is bags not arrived thats why they took him for intorrogation. Why would they bother when his passport stamped for entry. He was released only after Indian embassy contacted USCIS. It may take a while to get the truth out of it.

Until then have fun :D

Khan not singled out because of his name: US

The United States on Saturday denied the allegations that Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained and questioned for two hours at the Newark airport or that the actor was singled out because of his name or Asian identity.

The allegations "happen to be incorrect," the spokesman of the US Customs and Border Protection here Elmer Camacho said.

The spokesman said Khan was inspected because his baggage had not arrived.

"His documents and papers were checked, which were found to be in correct order," Camacho told PTI.

After a "normal" check at the airport, Khan was taken to a different room where he was waiting for his turn since many other people were already there. The entire process ended in one hour, the spokesman said.

The entire process, he said, was handled in a "professional manner" and there was no evidence of Khan being pointed out because of his name or Asian identity.

To a question on Khan's contention that he was asked by immigration officials about his work in the US, the spokesman said "it's our policy not to discuss all specific (details) of any traveller".

However, when any traveller enters the US, he or she is subjected to inspection, he added.

I feel if there is a security procedure, I would feel comfortable if everyone has to go through it.

I am not a muslim, but almost every time I check in i go through the special security screening,it is just their job to protect the other passengers, I feel good about it, that they are doing it.

After 9/11, in the month october I was flying to maryland, to visit a friend. I had long hairs with a beard. As i was going through the security check, I forgot to remove a silver waist band i wear( a family tradition, I inherited the band from my grand pa). the security gaurd had to check many times but he could not find the band, all the while it did not strike me that the band was the issue. he let me in, but just before I was boarding, the flight, a group of security personnel approached me, and they said I will have to go through the security process again. I realised the issue, and gave the silver waist band to their hands, they tested it, and asked me why I was wearing it. They asked me where I come from(country and other personal details).

After that incident 3 out of 5 times, I am being asked to go through the special security process. after that incident i do not wear the waist band during travels.

I think everyone has to go through the security process, however skewed it might appear. a white colleague of mine always has to go through special security process, since his name is on a watch list. there is nothing he can do about it.

Coming to celebrities, being the influential people they are, I think it would be a great thing if they promote such a thing, rather than lux soaps(ofcourse I am no celebrity and I am not in their shoes, so I might have gone overboard there.) alot of people can have their name as Shah Rukh Khan right, so how would a gaurd from another country know?
the world of appearances may or may not be real, or both may and may not be real - or may be indescribable; or may be real and indescribable, or unreal and indescribable; or in the end may be read and unreal and indescribable - its all Syadvada

I read somewhere that the issue was with the baggage delays. They waited till his baggage arrived and let him go once they checked it.

I think too much is being made out of nothing. We all go through these searches everytime we enter the country. SRK is getting free publicity for his next movie.

Obama, invite SRK for beer: Shekhar

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/bollywood/n ews-interviews/Obama-invite-SRK-for-beer-Shekhar/articleshow /4900821.cms

Internationally acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapur has criticised Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni's remarks to give a 'tit-for-tat' treatment to the Americans after Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained at a US airport for two hours.

Giving the example of former president A.P.J. Kalam, who was also frisked in April at the Indira Gandhi International Airport here as he was boarding a flight of US carrier Continental Airlines, Kapur wrote on his blog: "I believe what happened to Shah Rukh was a huge blunder, but what happened to our Abdul Kalam was far, far worse. It happened on Indian soil."

"But I admired the calmness with which Abdul Kalam dealt with the issue himself and displayed so much humility. I expect Shah Rukh to do the same as I am sure he will. Only he can defuse the situation," Kapur posted on his blog www.shekharkapur.com/blog Sunday.

"Unlike our Cabinet Minister Ambica Soni, who said we should respond with a 'tit for tat'. What are you going to do, Ms Soni? Interrogate every American citizen arriving at our shores for an hour and a half? Or wait for Brad Pitt to arrive here? Cabinet ministers need to make more considered statements," he wrote.

Shah Rukh was on his way to Chicago to attend a function to mark India's Independence Day and was detained for two hours at the Newark airport after US immigration officials spotted the 'Khan' in his name.

Reacting to it, Soni had said: "I have always felt - even when I was frisked there (the US) - that the way they frisk us we should do the same for them here."

Kapoor says to make up, US President Obama should invite Shah Rukh Khan for dinner.

"What happened to Shah Rukh is a minor incident which we should protest about, yes. Ensure that this doesn't happen to an Indian public figure like him again and move on," Kapoor said.

"And President Obama, adept as he is diplomatically and politically, should invite Shah Rukh to a family dinner over beer and (view) one of his Bollywood films," he added.

Once Boris Becker won the Wimbledon. Next year, when he came to play in first round at the court, the security guard in UK asked him to show his badge, the media tried to sensationalize the issue. Boris Becker calmly said that the security guard is doing his job and becker appreciated for doing his job. Infact, the security guard did not know, who the boris becker was, to begin with.

Apsrtc:

yes indiarocks and anand_n. they could have done that in the port of entry window itself since his passport had visa and he travelled to this country before. Along with he must have many valid visas for other countries. Please note that I am not pointing out to bypass that identity check.



US do not trust originating airports. ALso having a VISA does not guarantee your entry into US automatically. An immigration officer can send you back if he wants to. many valid visas means many more things, like going to lot of countries for terr training camps etc.

Here is US version.

Khan not singled out because of his name: US

The United States on Saturday denied the allegations that Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained and questioned for two hours at the Newark airport or that the actor was singled out because of his name or Asian identity.

The allegations "happen to be incorrect," the spokesman of the US Customs and Border Protection here Elmer Camacho said.

The spokesman said Khan was inspected because his baggage had not arrived.

"His documents and papers were checked, which were found to be in correct order," Camacho told PTI.

After a "normal" check at the airport, Khan was taken to a different room where he was waiting for his turn since many other people were already there. The entire process ended in one hour, the spokesman said.

The entire process, he said, was handled in a "professional manner" and there was no evidence of Khan being pointed out because of his name or Asian identity.

To a question on Khan's contention that he was asked by immigration officials about his work in the US, the spokesman said "it's our policy not to discuss all specific (details) of any traveller".

However, when any travller enters the US, he or she is subjected to inspection, he added.

Dude, put yourself in the security guy's place. You are assuming that the whole world knows that SRK is a film star, and he is there for the Independence day.

Even if his baggage were clean it does not mean that he is not a criminal, or a terrorist, and the security officer has no reason to or not to believe so, till he verifies your identity. I think they did the same

Shame on SRK,why can't he respect the importance of those security measures which are for innocent travelers like "him"?

If they were not so strict, the one in danger will be a traveler like SRK himself.

Shame on him to message a politician, and make this an issue

Kalm was forced to go through screening area and every day Sharukh is going through that. Compare two similar incidents not.. security frisking at airport before boarding the air craft and port of entry detaining on the same level.

Let me tell you one incident happened to me. In Lansing MI domestic airport I was flying to Los Angeles, CA on friday evening. I had a laptop and two hard disks with full of movies and mis data. My ticket printed with extra security.. they asked me to turn on laptops and connect the hard disks connected and verified its content. It happened 3 years ago.

I know sometimes domestic passengers marked **** in the boarding pass and I have gone through this. This procedure was done not based on LAST NAME and it is to protect aircraft airborne.

However in Sharukh situation he was picked up based on LAST NAME and he just landed in to country and he must have gone through all security checks in base country and transit airport with pre-boarding final checks and his bags must have verified in home airport and arriving airport for all explosives before they released. so what is the rationale here? Please dont say that he will blow up USA after entering into mainland. He is on a three day business trip to promote a movie and to paricipate in I-day celebrations in Chicago and his return flight is 18th August.

Everyday one insane person shooting 10 people in every corner of the country.. what protection the country is giving by giving gun licenses? How much crime rate Indian nationals causing in USA?

If you keep arguing on

Yes - because his name matches a suspect list ..so the process is to verify that he is indeed who he says he is and not the person on the list ..

What the....SRK is not a Govt. official. He may be a superstar in India, and may have millions of fans. Why should the security official give a rat's a@# about that?

This guy is used to being treated specially in India, and is expecting the same to happen in the US too. How can a US security personnel know that he is not a criminal?

Actually you don't hear of the others . Last year my dad was detained for 20 mins despite having a recognizable hindu name :-) And I am sure it happens to American named people too :-)

But it will likely happen with increasing frequency with names which match identified suspects ...

Then why every individual entering the country being investigated like that? What it the guarantee that US citizen with american name can not be a tellalist? He just had a last name with matching list of words and you must had to go through? Give me a break. Tellalists know that this process exists since 9/11. Why would not they try coming with IDs that are not muslim. What will be the basis to pick him? Why not fellow americans to go through it irrespective of Muslim name. Then I agree to it. Otherwise the whole argument people defending US process is ridiculous.




The fundamental reason to pick him is flawed and screwed up. So

Apsrtc:

That is very lame and most irresponsible statement from a Consular officer who was giving such answer in TV. When they have questions or find it fake based on individual interview process they must have a mechanism to counter balance it by continuing an investigation. Just because some guys screwed up the system by providing fake degree we can not treat entire system just on GUT and FEEL. They could have brought a law to penalize to maximum extent of law right?

When they dont have such trust they must stop accepting people from that country.




This is nice to talk about .. but think realistically ...

Is it fair to stop accepting people from a country because they don't have trust..they have verification systems but they do the checks via the Indian system - and we know the corruption levels in the Indian system ..so why would the confidence level change with another round of investigation ?

So finally it comes down to whether the officer making a decision on the day of the interview.

AS to this SRK case - the security asked for another round of investigation right - then why make a hue and cry ..

Apsrtc,
Monna Consular advice program chusan TV Asia lo. There was a consular officer answering a question - why visa clearance in India is so arbitrary .. even if people have all the paperwork they get rejected..

The officer explained- in India ( possibly in other places too but this program was about India ) the consulate officers can never be sure if the paperwork is genuine or fake so they end up relying on first impressions or gut feel...

Idi reputation - so if the security guys are not sure that SRK is who he claims to be- based on either name or face , they need to verify the identity ..tappu emi undi ?




Let us not link to those type of stereo types here. We are not living in illusion and 19th century to process people based on GUT. Today's incident is a just isolated incident. But pulling off people based on Last name and detaining him for second round of scrutiny is questionable to me.

Anger at US Bollywood detention
The Indian government has asked the United States to explain why a leading Bollywood film star was held for two hours at New York's Newark airport.

Shah Rukh Khan, who was released after India's embassy in the US intervened, said he felt angry and humiliated.

The actor, who is promoting a film on racial profiling, said he was stopped because he had a Muslim name.

In July, a US airline apologised to a former Indian president for frisking him before he boarded a flight.

The US ambassador to India, Timothy Roehmer, said the embassy was looking into Mr Khan's case.

Speaking in Delhi, Mr Roehmer said: "Shah Rukh Khan, the actor and global icon, is a very welcome guest in the United States. Many Americans love his films."

He said the embassy was trying to "ascertain the facts of the case - to understand what took place".

Popular celebrity

Mr Khan, 44, told the Press Trust of India news agency he had been detained by immigration officials at Newark airport because his name came up on a computer check list.

He told the agency that he had been released after he was allowed to message a politician in India, who contacted the Indian embassy in Washington on his behalf.

Mr Khan was on his way from New York to Chicago to attend an Indian independence day celebration when he was stopped.

The news was widely reported by Indian media outlets.

Mr Khan has appeared in more than 70 films and is considered one of India's most recognisable and popular celebrities.

Last month, America's Continental Airlines apologised to APJ Abdul Kalam amid outrage in India when it emerged that the former Indian president had been frisked and made to remove his shoes at Delhi airport in April.

The airline said in a statement that it had not intended to offend Mr Kalam or the sentiments of the people of India.
