SRK spoke with dignity: Shashi Tharoor

Author, former UN under-secretary general and now Minister of State for External Affairs, Shashi Tharoor has joined the voices against actor
Shah Rukh Khan


Shah Rukh Khan's two-hour detention at a US airport.


Tharoor said, "This also happens to hundreds of innocent Muslims daily who don't have one billion people to stand up for them. It raises real questions about US procedures."

He wrote on his tweet, "To all who asked about SRK, we all found it offensive and have asked the US to look into it. SRK himself spoke about the matter with great dignity."

Yes, minister!

Earlier, Shah Rukh said, "The US has developed religious paranoia over the years. My guard was also denied a visa because he has the same last name as mine."

The Bollywood star was detained for over two hours at the Newark airport, New Jersey. He was released after Indian embassy officials vouched for him. He was in the US to attend Independence Day celebrations. Currently filming for My Name is Khan, he underwent "humiliating" questioning even as he told authorities he was an Indian celebrity. His bodyguards were also grilled.

Several Bollywood celebs are in the US for I-Day celebrations, including Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan.
