If Shah Rukh Khan's detention at the Los Angeles International Airport had outraged his fans, Kamal Haasan's postmortem of the incident hurt them even more.
Kamal thinks that the US authorities were only following the rules and they were not bound to give special treatment to any person, even if it was Shah Rukh Khan. He asked fans of SRK not to overreact at what happened to Shah Rukh Khan. He added that SRK's fans might have been hurt with the incident, but the United States was an injured nation which has the full right and authority to take all the necessary security measures.
'It happened to many celebs including me on several occasions. My name, 'Kamal', sounds like 'Qamal' so many times I'm often mistaken for a Muslim. I had to miss my flight on few occasions. No one apologized me, at least Shah Rukh got apology from Secretary of State,' added the legendary actor.
Although Kamal's statement was logical, fans of SRK argue that Shah Rukh is not a street actor to go unrecognized. 'He is the 2nd richest actor in the world and the US authorities must respect him, argued his fans.
