Here, I'll one up ya. How about a guy who was famous before Mr Bollywood was probably born, who is still not always recognized?? Bob Dylan not recognized in NJ town.

Bottom line is, no matter how famous you might be, there's always going to be someone who doesn't have a clue who you are.......and a bunch more that don't care.

Me too, as I appreciate music from around the world. The problem is however, the song is so dang catchy Ill be minding my own business doing something and then all of a sudden "TUNAK TUN" will start playing my head and its all down hill from there. 🙁

:laugh:

the look on his face when he's doing that weird dance shit tells me the whole video is like a joke.. he's almost cracking up at himself in some of those scenes

It was almost a minute in before I could see it was not a joke but a real video. 😕

It wasnt a joke, he was just having fun. Anyway, the video is from 1998. If you look at some of his other videos, he wears his Sikh turban in all of them and always appears to be jovial throughout.

I guess its kind of like cowboys always wearing 10 gallon hats during old fashioned cw videos, although one is religious and one is not. 🙂

Well, you're basically an idiot and a bigot. That's like saying "I hate n*ggers because a few of them stole my bike when I was 5"...

And I guess you hate your granny too.. You're a terrible person..

Wait, so you think it's ok for anyone to be detained for hours, when they're not a criminal and have no reason to be suspected as one?

So much so that the person who complains about it should just go back to his country?

I don't get you people sometimes...

How would you feel if you were in France and were detained for no reason other than your name?

does anyone outside of india know or care who the fuck this guy is?

Funny, I felt the same way when I heard about the recent debacle with the arresting of a "prominent" Harvard professor, Henry Louis Gates. People were amazed that someone so famous could be mistaken for a common thief or thug.

I said, the whole time, "Um....who???"

Just because they're known in their own little corner of the world, doesn't mean diddly to the other 99% of us that don't know them from Adam, ya know?? :roll:

err, Gates was arrested trying to get into his own house... Very different from someone traveling to a foreign country.


PS Khan is probably more famous in the states than Gates.

I still don't see how this happened though. It's not like this is a nobody. It is very easy to verify celebrities, just call their agents/handlers in the States. Shit, like someone said, google would have told them who Khan was.

She bit my hand and refers to me as son of a bitch.
And goes to each of our neighbors and cooks up false stories against me.

Those who say that to hate your granny is terrible hasn't personally lived with a old person, who is dissatisfied with his/her lives, or was unable to achieve something in there lives. Or have lived with a sane old person or a cooperative one.

All those who say that old people are full of experience and wisdom are idiots !!!

For the non Indians... Living is sharing a house not sharing a bed.

I'd never recognize Bob Dylan either. Obviously the name, and perhaps his voice (though singing voices are often very, very different from speaking voices), but not his face.

Not really sure where to begin here, so I'll just start with the bolded:

maybe she just doesn't think very fondly of your mother? 😀

Excatly ... She thinks that my mother stole her entire property and plans to throw her in a oldage home(which is not possible legally).

Dude all tamil people are the same. They have cheap thoughts no class.
There films are shitty. The north indians make hell load of fun of there films.

Personally, I understand and accept that this is just the sort of the thing that I should expect.

....at least until I change my name from "Go to Hell Frenchies!"

lol, you're grandmother is just crazy. nothing new here. Maybe she needs to be on oxygen? paranoia and a piss&vinegar attitude in old age can be a sign of oxygen depletion to the brain.


 
She will be out of control, if we take her to a psychiatrist, we have already tried that. Believe me, my mom says that she was like right from her childhood.

And now enough of the thread de railing.

I was detained and questioned for about an hour coming back from another country. I am white, no criminal background, no real reason to stop me other than I had surfboards and looked like a surfer (all surfers smuggle pot I guess).

You didn't see me ranting and raving and tweeting the press. Get the fuck over it.


*I didn't even know who this idiot was until I read this post.

I am Indian and I have been "randomly choose" numerous times for "special" security check from 2002 - 2004. I was traveling a lot during that time. i never complained, in fact I was so accustomed to the routine that I used to go through the routine fairly quick and move on... I was never pissed off at them, after all those a$$holes did look like me...
