Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan has voiced strong support for fellow actor Shah Rukh Khan after he was detained for close to two hours at an airport in the United States on Friday.
Providing a balanced view on the issue, Amitabh said, "We all have to follow the procedures of every country. I too have been through a round of questioning and there is nothing wrong with it.
"But to do it deliberately is wrong. The system should be changed if it happens repeatedly. These people (the US) should be made aware about SRK."
Shah Rukh was stopped at a New York airport by US immigration department officials while he was on his way to address students at Yale University. He was released only after the intervention of the Indian Consulate General.
This was the second time SRK was detained at a US airport. The Indian Foreign Ministry said it will take up the matter with its American counter-part.
