Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan was detained by US airport immigration authorities for the third time.
In 2009, Shah Rukh Khan was detained at New Jersey’s Newark Liberty International Airport after his name appeared on a computer alert list.
He was stopped for more than two hours by the airport staff in 2012 as well and the US officials had apologized to the actor for his detention.
In February, a Sikh Indian-American actor and designer, Waris Ahluwalia, was barred from boarding an Aeromexico flight from Mexico City to New York because he refused to remove his turban.
Khan, also known as Bollywood King, said on twitter: “I fully understand & respect security with the way the world is, but to be detained at US immigration every…time really really s****.”
The actor, who was earlier stopped at the New York airport a couple of years ago, seemed to enjoy Pokemon game while waiting at the airport. “The brighter side is while waiting caught some really nice Pokemons,” he tweeted.
