My Name Is Khan

Pop goes the ICON!!!

Have you ever been famous and had an identity crisis??? I'm sure you don't even have a random idea how it feels then. But this man here, can give you guidelines how to behave or what to do when you end up with it or may be.

He is been ruling Bollywood for almost twenty years now, he's got a wax statue at Madame Tussauds, he's got websites, blogs, clubs and communities dedicated to himj than any Hollywood Legend, he's shot two movies in that land(one of them turned out to be in 2nd position at US Top 10 for three weeks), he's been performing stage shows there for past a month and yet he's been detained for 66 minutes at the NEWARK AIRPORT for one simple reason, the monitor at the enquiry counter said,'His name is KHAN'.

For instance, lets say Newark Airport Officials are high qualified Dumbsluts, they haven't seen a SRK movie, haven't seen him get a Doctrate a month ago nor have they ever googled the name KHAN to find some Al-Qaedi & ended up getting ten pictures of SRK in the first two pages itself. But are they that dumb that they haven't noticed him arriving and departing with his bodyguards and a huge fan following... Cos technically speaking, he visited New York 8 times in last 10 months.

So should we blame them for their ignorance? Well, because, I don't see any story in it. Actually I don't even believe this happened because i feel they made it happen. May be to create a hype for his upcoming flick, which coincidently sounds similar to the Newark Airport enquiry table monitor,"MY NAME IS KHAN".

This is not the first time someone is being detained for having a muslim name. Aamir, Salman and even APJ Kalam were caught in this mess. But never before was this so highlighted. Where are we heading with these kind of crap? Think.....

What have I've learnt: There's nothing for me to learn through this crap but there's something for everyone of us to learn. How long are we gonna be trapped into such SHIT HYPES??? This thing was headlined for more than 100 times in the last 24 hours that there were actually a lot of other important thins which remained as Flash news only at the bottom corner of the screen(like a Tikr). Who did create this hype? Who should we blame for this Bull? Media??? No. Blame yourself. Media shows what we wanna see. So as long as we wanna see things like these, media will be showing it to us. Time for us to move on from things like this as soon as possible people.

This is what i feel and I'm sure even you feel somewhat like this. If yes then please MOVE ON.

Grow up !!!

Eat well, Sleep safe. Sayonara

Have a Nice Day [=)]
