I’ve been a Bollywood fan for a while and was pleasantly surprised how well the form was handled by a Western director.

Oh, and did you hear that Shah Rukh Khan was detained for two hours by Customs in Newark Airport the other day? I mean, this is Shah Rukh freakin’ Khan we are talking about here, the most famous actor in Asia. It’d be like Tom Hanks being detained in Mumbai. People kept telling the Customs Agents who he was. They didn’t listen. His “name was on a computer”.

I’m very glad they didn’t try to re-write the script and change it to kids living in Detroit.

I hear Khan actually had to call the Indian embassy to convince them he wasn’t a terrorism threat. The dude’s like the Bollywood version of Ron Jeremy. It’s difficult to find a Bollywood movie without him.
