Post SRK detention, Salman cancels US trip

New Delhi: Learning lessons from the Shah Rukh Khan episode, Bollywood star Salman Khan has cancelled his upcoming trip to New York to promote his latest movie Wanted.
Organisers and promoters associated with the event cited Shah Rukh Khan's detention at Newark Airport early this month, where he was questioned by immigration officials and taken for a second screening, as a major reason for Salman cancelling his New York trip scheduled in early September.
The event was scheduled for September 3 in New York.
Besides Salman Khan, producer Boney Kapoor, former Bollywood star Sridevi and actor-turned-director Prabhu Deva were also scheduled to attend the New York meeting.
Shah Rukh Khan had alleged that he was detained and questioned at the airport for nearly two hours as his name popped up on the computer of the immigration counter.
