By
now
its
common
knowledge
that
after
doing
all
the
publicity
and
promotional
drive
for
Rab
Ne
Bana
Di
Jodi,
Shahrukh
Khan
has
embarked
along
with
good
friend
Karan
Johar
to
Los
Angeles
for
the
shooting
of
his
next
film
My
Name
Is
Khan.
The
film
re-unites
the
super-hit
jodi
of
SRK
and
Kajol
after
a
hiatus
of
nearly
7
years
(they
were
last
seen
in
Karan
Johar's
Kabhi
Khushi
Kabhie
Gham
in
2001)
However,
even
before
shooting
could
commence
in
full
swing,
the
unit
of
My
Name
Is
Khan
has
been
hit
by
a
roadblock.
Some
Muslim
members
from
the
cast
and
crew
of
the
film
have
been
denied
US
visas.
Among
these
include
SRK's
personal
staff
and
also
actor
Aamir
Bashir
(who
was
last
seen
in
A
Wednesday).
Post
the
Mumbai
terror
attacks,
the
US
consulate
has
become
extremely
cautious
of
issuing
visas
and
reports
say
that
despite
telling
them
that
they
were
going
for
a
shoot,
the
authorities
didn't
budge.
Now
the
rejected
members,
left
with
no
option,
have
submitted
fresh
applications
and
are
praying
for
better
luck
this
time
around.
