After being detained by US customs from a Newark N.J. airport, Sharukh Khan started and finished promoting his new film "My Name Is Khan"(About Racial Profiling). He portrayed himself as a "victim", and the media ran with it. He called the incident "embarassing" and stressed he would not be visiting the United States as frequently. I hope everyone realizes that his global marketing campaign for the film was created and executed in one night! What timing, very convenient, very savvy. Don't get me wrong, racial profiling is widespread and tragic. However, it would not suprise me if he exaggerated the event to promote his movie. I have friends who don't know who the fuck he is, now wanting to watch his movie...NOW Californian Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger wants to meet him. All this remorse for "the tragic incident", and the man is indefintely going to profit BIG time. Whatever, I'm over it. I mean he's a "victim" and all.
