In India, he manhandles security of Wankhede and cries intolerance when ED summons him.
The actor was spotted at the Mumbai airport along with daughter Suhana and son Aryan (View Photos).
This is not the first time that Shah Rukh, one of Hindi film industry's most successful stars, was detained at a US airport.
In 2012, he was detained at a New York airport for two hours when he had arrived to visit Yale University, where he was honoured as a Chubb Fellow.
In 2009, he was stopped at the Newark Airport, New Jersey, and was released after two hours at the intervention of the Indian consulate in New York.
"I was really hassled at the American Airport because of my name being Khan. It was absolutely uncalled for. I felt angry and humiliated," said Shah Rukh, who was then heading towards Chicago to participate in an Independence Day celebration event.
"It is a Muslim name and I think the name is common on their checklist," he had then said.
