Some of Funny Tweets About This Incidence-:

@coolfunnytshirt: KJo to #SRK : "Lets cash-in on the detention thing! Should we make 'Detention Detention Hota Hai'?

@pingankur: So we r now hvg a diplomatic outrage over #SRK? i thot r filmstars wr more down to earth at least! Shame! get over it buddy!

@Parvath33: I`m sure the American Authorities keep detaining SRK just to stop him from making more movies.

@navedjaved: What's a bigger honor SRK? Being a Chubb Fellow or being detained? #SeriousQuestion

@subbureddy: Seriously why all d brouhaha over srk detained. What wud have happened if me n u commn effing peopl wud have been detained. We'd be in jail

@kevingala: What did the officers at the airport tell SRK? - " Shah RUK "

At Last Our Message To Indian Govt. -:
Government of India must seek explanation from US Government on this Incident. It is not because SRK is a celebratory in India but it questions the very foundation of principle of fairness. If any person is who is unarmed going to a university on an invitation why he or she should be detained for questioning... This is just absurd.

Shah Rukh Khan was detained at New York Airport Again

NEW YORK: Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan was detained at New York airport for two hours Thursday as he arrived to visit Yale University, where he was honoured as a Chubb Fellow.

Khan, who was detained by the immigration authorities, was allowed to go only after his hosts intervened and took up the issue with the Department of Homeland Security in Washington, according to sources.

As part of the Yale Chubb Fellowship, Khan later attended a reception and dinner at Timothy Dwight College at New Haven Connecticut with over 120 Yale students including members of the South Asian Society at Yale, before taking a return flight Thursday night.

Before addressing the students at Yale University after joining the roster of Yale University's Chubb Fellows, one of the Ivy League institution's highest honours, for promoting human ideals through art, Khan recalled he was "detained" at the airport "as always happens".

Due to Khan's detention at the airport, the Yale event in New Haven started an hour late.

In August 2009 also, Khan was stopped at the Newark Airport and was released after two hours at the intervention of the Indian consulate in New York.

"I was really hassled at the American Airport because of my name being Khan...It was absolutely uncalled for...I felt angry and humiliated," said Shah Rukh, who was then heading towards Chicago to participate in an Independence Day celebration event.

"It is a Muslim name and I think the name is common on their checklist," he had then said.

The Chubb Fellowship is devoted to encouraging and aiding Yale students interested in the operations of government and in public service. Each year three or four distinguished men and women have been appointed as visiting Chubb Fellows.

Former Chubb Fellows include presidents George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, and Jimmy Carter; authors Octavio Paz, Carlos Fuentes, and Toni Morrison; filmmaker Sofia Coppola; architect Frank Gehry; choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov; and journalist Walter Cronkite.

Chennai Express Will Go On Floor On 10th August

Ever since Shah Rukh Khan decided to work with director Rohit Shetty, who’s been nicknamed Mr Blockbuster, everyone’s been

waiting for their film to get off the ground. Now the wait is over. Come August 10, and the mega-venture, titled Chennai Express, will go on the floors.

Sources close to Khan and Shetty told that the duo met a couple of times after the actor returned to Mumbai after a major schedule of Yash Chopra’s next yet untitled in London. Sources say that since Shetty is busy completing Bol Bachchan and SRK is preoccupied with the IPL, the duo will meet in a few days to decide on the leading lady and the rest of the cast.

Apparently, the film is expected to go on the floors on August 10, and will be made in record time just as Shetty completed Singham in a jiffy.

SRK May shoot 2 Movies At a Time. One is Rohit shetty's Chennai Express & Other Farah Khan's Next Happy New Year.

I am Lucky To Work With SRK Again : Anuska Sharma

MUMBAI: Anushka Sharma has been roped in for Yash Chopra's next untitled film, in which she teams up with Shah Rukh Khan again. The model-turned-actress says that she never imagined that she would get another chance to work with the superstar.

Anushka made her debut opposite Shah Rukh in "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi".

"I didn't think I will get a chance to work with Shah Rukh again after my first film, but I did. So, I am the lucky one. I look forward to it. Mr. Yash Chopra is an institution in himself literally. I guess I would get to learn a lot from that film," Anushka told reporters Thursday at the unveiling of India Today's women health magazine.

"I have not started the shooting yet. I will be joining the crew from May onwards right after my birthday, which is on May 1. So I will start shooting from May 2. I am very excited. I think it is any actor's dream to work with Yash Chopra," she added.

Chopra's film also features Katrina Kaif.

"For me, it was a little different. The kind of films that I have done was different from this one. I was nervous in the beginning, but I think it's going really well and I am really looking forward to it

Salman Makes Fun Of Shahrukh At An Event

It is often said “Two swords cannot stay inside one scabbard, else would rattle”. Bollywood's two majestic superstars Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan similarly share a rattling relationship Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan don't seem to be ready to bury the hatchet yet, to go by their comments at two different events Monday Business tycoon Mukesh Ambani and his wife Neeta organised a gala event last week to honour Sachin Tendulkar for scoring his 100th ton From Aamir Khan to Salman to Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai - all big names from the film industry were present, but SRK was conspicuous by his absence. At the party, praising Sachin, Salman said: "I hope record ye toot jaye...koi na koi isse tod de...main Aamir ka record bahut der se todney ki koshish kar raha hoon...toot hi nahin raha hai..." "Sachin ke record todna mushkil hi nahin namumkin hai...aur ye Don nahin main bol raha hoon. Aur bol bhi sakta hoon kyonki mera father (Salim Khan) ne likhi hai ye picture. Rights toh unhi ke paas ahin. Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) ne ki thi ye picture." Reacting to this, Shah Rukh told reporters Monday: "I get numb by the kind of stories I keep hearing about myself. I try not to take them seriously or comment about them." SRK was speaking at the unveiling of customer campaign for season five of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Asked about this, Salman explained that his father wrote that line for Amitabh Bachchan and that he has every right to use it. "Yes, I made the right comments. My father did not take any objection on that," he told reporters on Monday while announcing his association with yatra.com. Watch Video-:

Why Shahrukh Stopped Tweeting ??

Shahrukh Khan, who is one of the most active celebrities on the micro blogging site twitter is not tweeting anymore! Well, well...don't be shocked! Let's just hope that the baadshah has only taken a short break from twitte

r and will soon be tweeting to We SRK Fans. On March 21st, Shahrukh Khan tweeted, “Missing my lil boy and girl....they have such small lovely hands....and such large beautiful hearts.” On the same day, Ram Gopal Varma wrote on twitter, “If all children are so innocent nd have beautiful hearts how come most of them grow up to become bastards?” Hmmm...don't you think there is some connection that RGV is making out there? Anyways, Shahrukh Khan has stopped tweeting after that. Is it mere coincidence or is it that King Khan is hurt by the statement and has withdrawn himself? Well, all that we can say to our beloved Shahrukh Khan is that no matter what anybody says, we love you and we want you to keep tweeting! What say guys?

SRK to deliver lecture at Yale as Chubb Fellow

Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan would deliver a lecture at the prestigious Yale University as it's Chubb Fellow, an honour which in the past has been bestowed on heads of states and Noble prize winners. As part of the prestigious fellowship, Shah Rukh, 46, would deliver a lecture at Yale University on April 12, the university said in a statement. The Chubb Fellowship is among Yale's highest honors and Khan would join a roster of fellows dating back to 1949 who have included heads of states, Nobel Prize winners, and leaders from every area of human endeavor who have inspired Yale students.

"Through his films and his philanthropy, the Chubb Fellowship noted that Khan has been among his generation's most important examples of the power of art to promote higher human ideals and aspirations," the University said. Established in 1936, through the generosity of Hendon Chubb (Yale College Class of 1895), the program is based in Timothy Dwight College, one of Yale's residential colleges. Each year three or four distinguished men and women have been appointed as visiting Chubb Fellows. Chubb Fellows spend their time at Yale in close, informal contact with students and deliver a public lecture. Former Chubb Fellows include Presidents George W Bush, Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter; authors Octavio Paz, Carlos Fuentes and Toni Morrison; filmmaker Sofia Coppola; architect Frank Gehry; choreographer Mikhail Baryshnikov; and journalist Walter Cronkite. Globally, Shah Rukh Khan is considered to be one of the biggest movie stars, with a fan following in millions. In 2008, Newsweek named him one of the "Fifty Most Powerful People in the World."

Vidu Vinod :- SRK had always been My first choice

Producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra says that Shah Rukh Khan had always been his first choice for most of his films, be it 3 Idiots, 'Munnabhai MBBS', or the yet-to-be released Ferrari Ki Sawari. "Shah Rukh was offered '3 Idiots', 'Ferrari Ki Sawari', 'Munnabhai' and other films. He is our first guy - we go to him first and if he says no, then we move on," Chopra told reporters here.

Shah Rukh had backed out of 'Munnabhai MBBS' because of back trouble and could not do '3 Idiots' because of date issues. If Chopra had his way, SRK would have been the Munnabhai of 'Munnabhai MBBS' and Sanjay Dutt would have played the small role of Zaheer, a cancer patient. "Today, I feel Sanjay is perfect as Munna and same way Sharman fits the central role in 'Ferrari Ki Sawari'. It is all about writing and getting the right actor for the right role, which is difficult," Chopra said

SRK & Sanjay Dutt Teamed Up For Karan Johar's Next.

According to reports ,the two superstars might soon be seen together in Agneepath director Karan Malhotra’s next. Talking to a leading daily, Malhotra confirmed that he has an abstract idea of a film in his mind, and added that it won't be a sequel or a remake.

A source close to Dharma Productions however indicated that the filmmaker's next project would be a rugged action film with 'tailor-made' roles for Dutt and SRK. While the two actors have been very friendly off screen, they had never come together for a full-fledged production ever. This would be the first.But Sanjay Dutt and Shah Rukh Khan have come together on screen just once. In the title song of the SRK starrer Om Shanti Om in 2007. Moreover, Karan Johar's production house that was rumoured to be moving away from their favourite hero Shah Rukh is planning two projects with the actor in the coming year. Our source revealed, that Malhotra would definitely direct one of them.

Anuska Sharma In SRK-Farah 's Next !!!

Barely days after Shah Rukh Khan and her husband Shirish Kunder hugged and made up after their infamous brawl at Sanjay Dutt's party at a Juhu nightclub, Farah Khan managed a casting coup of sorts by roping in SRK as the leading man in her next. Wasting no further time, we hear the choreographer-turned-director has now zeroed in on her leading lady as well. And Mirror can tell you Farah has gone no further than SRK's Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi co-star Anushka Sharma for the prized role.

Anushka is very excited with the offer, and has agreed in principle. And the modalities are being worked out. It would also be safe to say that like other biggies in B-town, SRK too, may have had a say in Anushka's selection. A source told us, "Farah obviously wants someone big in the film; someone who is hot and happening. Kareena Kapoor and Katrina Kaif were the obvious choices but Anushka has won the race." The source added, "Farah too is quite fond of Anushka. She was quite impressed by her dancing abilities in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi." Meanwhile, Anushka, who will soon also start shooting with Aamir Khan for Rajkumar Hirani's next Peekay, is busy working out her dates for Farah's film. The source pointed out that Anushka and SRK have always shared an excellent professional equation. "They gelled very well during the making of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, where they were romantically paired. They share screen space in Yash Chopra's next but there, Katrina Kaif plays the lead opposite Shah Rukh," the source explained. With Farah's film expected to hit theatres in 2013, it would be refreshing to see SRK and Anushka together again after five years. Both Farah and Anushka remained unavailable for comment. Do You Think Take Anuska In Lead Is A Good Decision Of Farah Khan.
