My Name is Khan





New York Times: Shah Rukh Khan, understandably annoyed from being detained by immigration officials at a New Jerey airport last Friday, had this to say: "The US doesn't lead an isolated, parallel universe existence...there is a whole world which makes all the good and bad that is happening. So if we are scared of violence and terrorisim, all of us are responsible for it. It's not that the world is and America is not."

Kipp Report: The king of Bollywood began his acting career in television; in 1988, he landed the role of Abhimanyu Rai in a popular series called Fauji, and in 1989, he acted as Senior in In Which Annie Gives It Those Ones, among others. In 1992, he made his film debut in as Raj Mathur Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. He has since made over 70 movies, many of which have been successful. One of his films, the 1995 hit Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, remained in cinemas across India for over 10 years. His latest project, My Name is Khan, is about racial profiling, making the incident at Newark airport last week ironic. He was travelling to the US to promote his movie, but was detained for questioning as part of routine security checks.
