He is Pakistan's star since he is pakistani in his blood!!
Good news!!
We have the same name! Yeay!
Hope you win!!
Congrats!!
And I don't see what supporting a dad has to do with religion... By the same token, when he was sleeping around with girls, where was Islam then?
@arun:
Khan simply acknowledges his background, faith and culture -- and what is wrong with that?..why can't you indians let go? Get on with your own pathetic so called country and it's high time your obsession with Pakistan comes to an end..... ..indian trolls are out on the Net bashing Khan with fake names as you have small little jealous hearts that cannot absorb the fact that Pakistan produce elites in every respect and barring our misfortune with respect to religious extremist and corrupt politicians -- we would've already been a great power in every respect but that time shall come soon too...
@arun:
Just like an "NRI".
