Salman Khan fined once again for smoking in public places

Bollywood stars may be idols for millions of fans around the country, but they are definitely not without their flaws. Addiction to smoking is one such evil to which most actors in Bollywood give in. Actors like Ajay Devgan and Shahrukh Khan have earlier been fined for lighting up cigarettes in public places.
This time Salman Khan came under the clutches of law and was fined with Rs. 200 for smoking in a public place while shooting for his film Bodyguard in Patiala, Punjab. A photograph of Sallu Bhai was published in a news daily on Saturday which showed Salman smoking in the Hotel Neemrana where the shooting of the film is going on.
Smoking in public places is banned in Patiala. So, Salman was charged with Rs. 200 fine by the local district authorities on Tuesday, which incidentally was also World No Tobacco Day. The hotel authorities were also issued a challan.
It may be mentioned here that Salman Khan was fined twice for the same offence in 2009 by the authorities of Karali town near Mohali.
