Slow poison

Smoking is a slow-poison. Research has proved that passive smoking is more dangerous than active smoking. What starts as a pastime ends in death. Unfortunately, the heroes are shown smoking in films which sets a bad example to youths. As it is youths waste a lot of time hero worshipping. It is hightime the Censor Board, film certifying agencies and the government collaborate and actively involve in creating awareness. There should be an immediate ban on smoking and drinking scenes.

J.John Prabhakar,

Madurai.
