Shahrukh detained in Newark Airpork for 2 hours!!! - Page 6

I agree with you tpam in the sense that the same rules should apply to everyone and security is of the utmost importance. What this incidence shows to me however is that the US Security people (not sure what they are called) are not really doing that great of a job. What I mean by this is that these were 2 hours wasted on a person who has visited the US countless times.

 The thing here is that people are detained often because their names sounds like or is in some way similar to a list of people who send of red flags in their security system. At such a point if you do a google search any officer would realize that this is in fact some other actor guy and not a sneaky criminal. When people are interrogated by security in the US, its usually guided either by matches to certain names of suspects, or if you are from a place like Palestine which sort of has a set image in the minds of the powers that be.

Apart from that racial profiling is a sensitive issue and we can't just dismiss it because of security concerns.

ammu at the airport, they treated Srk as he was a stranger. Okay if this was Srk first ever visit to usa, we can understand but Srk came to usa so many times. Why didn't they question srk during kank shooting or KHNH shooting? both movies came after 9/11 right? If not then, why now? It just doesn't make sense.

It could have been a new airport. Honestly there could be a billion reasons for the check. And many people have to go through them, as embarrassing as they maybe. Its the reality of the world we live in. What I feel slightly worried about is that it took them 2 hours to figure out that this guy is not a terrorist or criminal of some kind. That should have been easier.

i absolutely agree with yu, infact i wrote in my last reply that rules shud b for all , nt for any particular sect or ppl ..

i agree with this quotes....how dumb can they be...if SRK said he is a bollywood actor then juz google to find out whether it is true or not........🤪

What i want to know is...

Where were all the desi ppl at newark? Its like another mini india..

How come no one stood up for him!!?

If i saw him, I would be like Mr Khan!!! Autograph pleej!

Then i would have told the cops, he is famous see (shows phone after going on google and typing SRK)...

oh god mall security checking all over india is a joke. they just use that metal detector and even when it beeps they let you go in. i have a cousin whose name is kabir, and since its religiously ambiguous and our last names are slightly less known he has to do the extra security checks all the time. it annoys him, but then he also admits that if these things help then i guess we should go ahead.

 

I don't think indian media will let go off this incident. They will drag to no end. But the good news is srk was there for 2 hours only, worse could had happened. I hope srk still would to usa after this incident. But rules should be for each and every passengers. Asking Srk for what reason are you here??😆

i think MNIK is also based on this topic only. right? discrimination based on religion in US? so could be that this was done b4 also and now this is blown out of propotion for publicity and proving that the story of the movie is true.
just a thought.
