Shah Rukh detained, questioned over name 'Khan' in US
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained for two hours at a US airport after American immigration officials spotted the 'Khan' in his name, his aide said.
Shah Rukh was on its way to Chicago to attend a function to mark India's Independence Day when the incident took place at Newark airport.
"He was detained because his surname is Khan. He was kept until officials from the Indian embassy intervened. Now he has been released," Niloufer Qureshi, Shah Rukh's manager, told IANS over telephone from Mumbai.
