Shah Rukh Khan may be a global superstar, but he says nothing keeps his ego in check like a trip to the United States.

“Whenever I get too arrogant, I go to America,” he said, recalling frequent airport detentions. He revealed immigration officers often grill him and poke fun at his height – a question he cheekily answers with a lie.

“They kick the star out of stardom,” SRK quipped, adding that next time he’ll even try saying his skin colour is “white”.
