NEW DELHI, Aug 12, (AP): Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan tweeted Friday that he gets detained at US airports “every damn time” after he was stopped at the Los Angeles International Airport.

The US Ambassador to New Delhi Richard R. Verma responded with an apology in a tweet saying the US government was working to “to ensure it doesn’t happen again.” His current trip is the third time the wildly popular Khan has been detained at a US airport.

In 2012 he was stopped at an airport in White Plains, NY and in 2009 he was detained for two hours at Newark airport.
