To all the kids reading this, don’t take it up! It’s not cool. However, for some reason, all my photographer friends feel it has a cinematic appeal to it when taking pictures”.

There were times when smoking on-screen was portrayed as a cool thing to do for a hero, seems like 2019 has brought some changes. Even if someone is shown smoking a disclaimer also appears on the screen most of the time, discouraging viewers.

It’s a good thing that actor wants to quit smoking and is also communicating a message over Instagram for kids out there, an as large proportion of users at Insta are young people. But using a photo of him holding a ciggy wasn’t a wise thing to do. Since the disclaimers are on cigarette packets too and that and that does not seem to deter smokers.
