Shar Rukh Khan makes joke of America, India talks tough, America remains stubborn, ignorant, and arrogant as usual
"My name is Khan and I am not a terrorist." This was the theme of the movie SRK made to bring awareness to Americans. Well it did not work. That is for sure.
The Indian government on Friday intervened strongly on behalf of Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan after he was stopped for extended questioning by US airport authorities who, by the star's own account, "kick the star out of stardom".
The second episode involving Shah Rukh Khan versus US airport officials-the previous one was in 2009-went something like this: Khan arrived at White Plains Airport on a small private plane along with industrialist spouse Nita Ambani and some others en route to Yale University, where the Bollywood megastar was to receive a Chubb fellowship and deliver a speech.
When the habit is to look at people of color as commodities to use, what do you think they care? It is not about Bollywood's SRK, it is about every Indian living in America.
Things will never change unless Indians India realize the true character of the so called super power and stop coming to USA to serve the rich and powerful.
Recently, due to lack of opportunities, thousands of talented Chinese have gone back. Sam is true for Indians to a lesser extent. But the craze about going to American dreamland in IITs and IIMs is still there. The trend is changing but very slowly.
Americans need to learn to respect diversity. It is not good to say I do do not like you but I like to use and exploit you. hat is where the problem lies.
