America apologises for SRK detention

America's prestigious Yale University, which had invited Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan, on Saturday said that his detention was "unfortunate" but things were sorted out in the end.

As SRK himself would tell you, what is most important in his movies is how they end rather than how they begin.

And yesterday, things began in an unfortunate manner, but ended in a way that left everyone happy," Yale's Assistant Secretary of international affairs George Joseph said in an emailed statement Khan was detained for over two hours at the White Plains airport in New York by immigration authorities on Friday.

SRK takes it easy at Yale speech after his detention at America

Bollywood actor Shahrukh Khan, who arrived here to visit the Yale University, was detained for over two hours at a New York airport.

Before addressing the students at the Yale University, which is three hours from New York, Khan said, he was "detained" at the airport "as always happens".



Khan, who has been named a Chubb Fellow, was accompanied by Neeta Ambani and they were understood to have arrived in a private plane at the New York's White Plain airport.Ambani's daughter is a student of Yale University.

while everybody else were cleared by the immigration immediately, Khan was stopped for over two hours before being cleared by the immigration officials.

Shahrukh puts it that way, " when the americans ask me about my height, I say its 5 feet 10 inches and when they ask me about my color I reply them , well I am White".

And whenever my stardom is at its height, they just demoralise my culmination.
