Absolutely. There was an Hartal in Kerala, even when Pluto was taken out from the list of planets. 'Take back Pluto' Hartal !!!
Anyone whos been to US will know that americans r v strict with laws.esp with relation to terrorism.They dont favour any actor or politician unlike india where these guys expect special treatment. kudos to mammotty for taking it in the right spirit unlike our politicians who think they r god.

I appreciate Mammooty for taking the incidence in the right perspective. US authorities were 100% right. Unlike India there may not b a single country which takes security check lightly & give spl treatment 2 the political buffoons. India has 1 or 2 lessons 2 follow from this incident.

how dare you tell that mallus are toilet cleaners & whe whole world hates mallus. What the hell do u know about mallus, you sucker. Everyone knows about you Blo_dy mangaloreans. suckersssssssssssssss
I respect the US security for doing their job meticulously and also this guy for taking it in its spirit.
Imagine the same situation in India where a local minority leader is stopped at an airport even with valid reasons, the whole setup will haev to resign maybe even up to the aviation ministry, public apologies, dharnas, and whatnot !!! At this point one recalls how Sadhu Yadav made a Kolkata bound train come from platform no 3 to 1 so that he could board it as he felt that he was being troubled by being asked to go to platform no 3...this is the mentality of our leaders towards our public transport systems !!!

For security reasons any one can be stopped regardless of his religion. Special preferences cannot be allowed to people just because they are super-stars or belong to a particular community. In India, most are used to getting away with the law hence all such reports cause unnecessary furore here.

For security reasons...poppycock. The Chief of Indian Armed Forces, till a few months back were subjected to frisking, while the 'Royal' Son-in-Law, Robert Vadra could walk through with a casual wave of his hand.

while writing any thing about a person, first find about him. It is not the habit of Malayalm stars to claim any special status even in their state. Mr. Chkravarthy would have learned about other stars - perhaps bollywood. there also many stars are there who dont ask for special stauts.
Indians love to obey laws,authority,etc etc in other countries..save India..this shows how much nationalism we sport..Mammooty is anyway an Honest man..
"Every country has its laws and systems. We too have it. We should obey those laws. I did not feel discriminated or harassed when I was questioned at the airport," he told rediff India Abroad.
"This is not something that happened to me alone. So there is no point taking it seriously," he added. Even US Senator Edward Kennedy has been stopped at airports, the star pointed out.
Very well said and understood. Wish many people in India think and take it like you :)

Being an actor par excellence he has covered up his embarassement in kind words. But in real life he is not so.Just opposite of reel life. Commie connections with dubious Dubai dealings.
