Later, the actor also tweeted thanking the US ambassador saying he didn't mind following the protocol but mentioned his detention as "a tad inconvenient".
"Back in 2012, Khan was detained at New York's White Plains Airport for two hours after arriving from India. In 2009, he was stopped by immigration officials at Newark Liberty International airport in New Jersey as his name appeared on a U.S no-fly list that is 80,000 strong. US customs officials said Khan's questioning was part of a routine process," CNN reported in 2016.
