Smoking scenes in films: Ban may be diluted :
THE Health Ministry's proposal to disallow advertising of brand
extensions could come as a blow to companies promoting products such
as apparel, greeting cards or bravery awards using tobacco brand
names.
According to highly placed sources, the Government wants to stop
tobacco companies from indulging in any kind of surrogate
advertising. "It is being proposed that the ban on advertising of
tobacco products be extended to these products or services as well.
Also, the colours or logo used by the tobacco brand cannot be used
in brand extensions," they said.
To discourage people from smoking, the Health Ministry is keen that
leading characters in films and television serials do not smoke on
screen. A study conducted earlier by the World Health Organisation
had indicated that 76 per cent of Indian films showed actors and
actresses puffing away. WHO had urged the film industry to stop
showing such scenes, as they had a negative influence on children?
Since then, the Ministry has held meetings with officials of the
Censor Board and representatives of television channels. "We are
planning to prohibit showing any character in film or television
from using or displaying any tobacco product. In the case of older
movies or television shows with smoking scenes, a warning message
like `Use of tobacco is injurious to health' should appear,
highlighting the harmful effects of tobacco consumption," the
sources said.
The Central Government of Chennai's decision to ban depiction of
smoking in films has evoked mixed reactions from film personalities.
While many are not sure of what exactly the ban amounts to, some
others have welcomed the decision. Some cine stars talk :
· Ultimate Star Ajit’s ‘Attagasam’ has started by a quotation
: “Cigarette smoking is injourious to the health” by Ajith himself
and tells that he is going to reduce smoking on screens. His Latest
film ‘Ji’ didn’t show him smoking.
· Filmmaker Gautham asks: "What if I show a character smoking
and also show that he dies four scenes later because of smoking? Am
I not allowed to do that? I think it's okay as long as one does not
glorify smoking. What if I, like Ram Gopal Varma says: Whenever I
show characters like gangsters, I also show how they die. Films are
just meant to be watched and talked out, it's about entertainment.
You feel good and take it back home." In`Vettaiyaadu Vilayaadu.' (
his latest film ) "A couple of main characters smoke in the film,
but not Kamal. But then, it's not a big deal. I can take it out if
it has to removed"
· Many actors already have made it a point not to smoke on
screen. Kamal Haasan has for long maintained a strict policy of not
smoking on screen. Even the Superstar, known for his antics with the
cigarette, has now rewritten his style-statements with branded
bubblegum and biscuits in `Chandramukhi.'
· While Madhavan ensures that the director has a good enough
reason to make him smoke, Suriya quit smoking on screen a few films
ago, after he took a vow in public at a function. "I don't remember
what function that was, but since I promised, I stuck to it. I
haven't smoked in `Aayitha Ezhuthu, `Peralagan,' `Maayavi' or even
`Gajini'. I think it is a good move to ban smoking scenes. Because
as actors, we do have a social responsibility and I already feel bad
about the damage I've caused by smoking in my earlier films," he
says.
· Film theory expert and director Hariharan, however, says:
"It is ridiculous, absurd and simplistic to believe that cinema is
responsible for habits. People were smoking even before the movies
came. The cigarette is an expression of depression or portrayal of
character and smoking is just a dramatic gesture." "After having
smoked in many films, how can I talk about this or tell people not
to smoke," a top Tamil star says, almost embarrassed. Unsure of what
stand to take, most technicians and actors have decided to let their
unions speak on the issue. A formal reaction from the film industry
is expected soon.

What do I mean??
So u think that rajini lives on cigarrettes... I dont care about his personal life.. If rajini smokes whats ur problem?? is he blowing the smoke all over ur face?? or is he asking you to smoke like him??
remember the scene in ninaithalae inikkum where P.V. asks him to do the trick for 10 times for his toyota car.. how famous was that scene.. thats where it started.. and remember rajini is not the only guy who is smoking on screen..
kamal has done that in the past...
ajith is doing it now..
vijay is doing it in almost every film..
even simbhu/danush are doing..
in CM he dint do that at all coz the character is like that.. in batshah, baba he did that coz he came in as a rowdy.. even in batshah he dint smoke when he came as manickam..
so if everybody is smoking on screens I dont understand why poeple are blaming rajini alone..
even in GF, KSR has spent a crore (as he says) to shoot a scene where apparently ajith smokes..

rajini does a hell of a lot more than just smoking!! He doesn't need that for a hit.
Look at Chadnramukhi, u don't see him with a ciggerette once in the film. the film is still a super duper hit!!!
But this ban is welcome though. 8)

Apparently Ramadoss discussed the issue with I & B people but
went ahead and announced the ban on June 1 (Non smoking day)
without their feed back, neither did he consult or get approval
from Censor board, some loop holes in the anti tobacco act helped
him to imply these bans, the ban and new rules is still not 100%
sure to come into effect and some modifications will probably
take place.
Many people including Sharmila Tagore feel it is not neccessary
to totally ban showing use of tobacco in movies but a caution
message can be shown before and after the movie, I think this
is quite reasonable.
On the other hand, to ban showing tobacco being used in movies
totally seems little extreme, isn't it? Why not leave the decision
to censor board to decide where it should be allowed and where
it should not, depending on the context, charecterization and
impact of the particular scene on the audience? No doubt,
when use of cigarette promotes a cool look in a particular scene,
it can encourage the fans to smoke but it is not always used
in movie for giving it a cool look, so it should be left to the
censor board to make the decision IMO.
Cable broadcast related organizations are also very worried
about this ban, since there are more than 250 cable channels
in India and growing, these channels include lots of foreign
channels including many channels that show english movies
all the time, the foreigners are not going to make movies
keeping the ban implied by India in mind, as per the new rules
new movies made post the date the ban has been applied
just cannot show use of any tobacco products, so how
are the programs shown on these foreign channels going to
be controlled?
Even sports related cable channels are concerned, many sports events have banners advertising tobacco products
and it will be difficult to elimitate those too while showing
a live action sports event, say a car racing for ex, how are
they going to control this?
As per the new rules, all movies/tv shows etc produced
before the date of the new rule announcement must show
captions along with the particular scene showing tobacco use
with warning statements about health hazards due to the
use of tobacco products, if this rule does come into effect,
most of Rajini movies will have the captions through half of the
movie.

when did rasini start caring about the charecter?
rasini's charecter in cm is of a psychyartist, does he convincingly
act like a sensible psychyartist? you can give million such examples
the one and only reason he did not smoke in cm is because
of the plastic surgery which he did for his lips and doctors
strictly prohibited him from smoking, this is a fact stated

rajini smoking in cinemas is never acceptable but still ppl coparig it with vijay or ajith smokin is childish...rajini's was a phenomenon...go ask ur uncles on how many of their friends or themselves started smoking after seeing rajini smoking.now though it has drawn adverse effects on then youth and now middle aged ppl...it still looms to b one of the most stylish smoking appearnces by any actor...ajith or vj smoking in scenes does not make any impression for that case...cigar illatiyum rajini wud've come to this level by any other means for he had the talent and hrd work...limit ur stupid fights and bullyings to ajith vijay only and dont bring in ppl like rajini and kamal to it...for ivanunga vayasum avanunga experienceum equal..righta??????????illa repeata????
coming back to the original course of this thread...any move to ban cigarette smoking is a welcome move...i hope non-smokers who go to theatres for movies would welcome it the most...for once u try to get out of the hall in the interval u r left out in a cloud of clogging smoke...
that will show u the extend of smoking by the young generation now....be it banning screen appearances of heroes on screen or pulling down banners of cigars...anything as responsible ppl we need to accept it and not keep fighting a foolish fight on who's style of smokling is good and the poor fellow loses his right ot smoke on screen...

[tscii:7d2f300536] ‘A’ certificate for films with smoking scenes?
The I & B ministry announced a ban on smoking scenes in films and TV from October 2, as per central minister Anbumani’s grand plans. As the deadline approached, the opposition to that increased and the situation has now exploded.
Directors, actors, producers, Adoor Gopalakrishnan who received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award for 2004, writers, media persons, Censor Board chief Sharmila Tagore, have all expressed opposition. Jaipal Reddy, Minister for Information and Broadcasting, has also stated that his ministry was also not in favor of total ban on smoking scenes.
As the problem has been increasing in stature, prominent Hindi film producer/director Mahesh Bhatt has filed a case against the ban.
Government lawyer argued that smoking scenes will corrupt the minds of youth and Mahesh Bhatt’s lawyer argued that this ban was against the freedom of the citizen. The Justice also participated in the arguments.
“How can one make a Hindi film on Churchill without his cigar?” This was an important question posed by the Justice. Churchill and his cigar were inseparable and one cannot show a Churchill minus his cigar. Moreover, there is no ban on smoking itself, so why ban it only in films? As the Justice asked for explanations, the ministry is running helter skelter to come up with plausible reasons.
When the ministry considered giving an ‘A’ certificate to films with smoking scenes, there was a lot of protest.
Amidst all this, we want to know what happened to those who started this smoke issue in the first place!

Im not saying that they have to and o follow everything that their thalaivars do its just that people esp kids and adolecents are more influenced by what they see...dont know if you heard the story of the young boy who tried to imitate shakthiman and tried to fly from the 3 floor balcony.
Yes it was really stupid but he was a child of 4 years he didnt know better..the parents unfourtunately were not vigilant enough.Its not the fault of the producers of shakthiman..but then whose fault is it??It would have helped if the producers made sure that the serial didnt include scenes which could influence young kids to try things like these..anyways..im not saying that they should ban smoking completely but just dont make it look cool...if the hero has to smoke coz his character warants it then make it look like a bad habit which hes trying to kick off..just dont make it look like its something great!!

It's ridiculous that somebody will get influenced by their favorite actor and start doing the same thing. If I go according to you guys, then all Rajini fans should be smokers, all Kamal fans should be smoochers, all Maddy fans should be girl-chasers, all Simbu fans should be rapists, all Vikram fans should be serial killers, all Dhanush fans should be abductors, etc etc...
Come on guys, there is a limit to how much you can defame Rajini. Just because you all don't like him, it doesnt mean you can create threads one after another for the sole purpose of pulling him down (thanks to Crab). If you don't like somebody, just dont talk abt him..As simple as that. What is your agenda here? Try to stop adoloscents and kids to not smoke in future? Isn't that what the parents will be trying too? Do you think that the kids wont smoke after hearing all this crap talk against one actor....Just doesnt make sense....
Anyways, I just dont understand the nature of this forum. If you favortise one actor, does that mean you have to go against all other actors? Excuse me, but why cant somebody like and appreciate the positives of all actors, and stop critizing the negatives if it's gonna hurt some ppl....

Anyways, I just dont understand the nature of this forum. If you favortise one actor, does that mean you have to go against all other actors? Excuse me, but why cant somebody like and appreciate the positives of all actors, and stop critizing the negatives if it's gonna hurt some ppl....
good point... but everybody is different...
i like ajth. so i want his rival vj to fall.that's normal human nature..

I am not a memeber of Rajini fan club,Kamal fan club or any such fan clubs...I posted the article by WHO with the sole intention of bringing to light what has been surveyed..I dont wantto bring down Rajini/Kamal/Ajit/Vijay/blahblah...
What u feel is immpossible is very well possible among uneducated people dwelling in the slums.Screen idols are like Gods for them.Please understand that they would get influenced by what they see in movies..e.g Auto shankar...(he killed people and hid the bodies in the walls of his house after watching the movie 100 days)IT was a sensational case dunno if you remember or if you were too young. Its great that you or anyone you know dont get influenced by movies.A big "HATS OFF" to you!
