Anurag Kashyap refusing to carry an anti-smoking disclaimer in his films, has now got Farhan Akhtar's support.

Farhan feels putting a disclaimer in the middle of the movie, takes away the crust of the scene and audience tends to lose interest in the film.

Farhan said, "We all are in agreement that smoking is injurious to health. But is running a disclaimer as a sub-title during a scene the solution to the problem? The answer is `no'."

He further adds,"This warning destroys the aesthetic value of a film and distracts audience from the movie thus ruining the experience of watching a film."

Farhan is in talks with his fellow-mates to support him and Anurag in this fight.

"The film industry had willingly accepted and proudly supported the anti smoking public awareness film by attaching it to prints and digital files, to be run before the start of a feature. But to have disclaimers in the film itself is stepping on the filmmakers' toes, demanding that the creator compromise on his integrity."

"We have a rating system that decides the appropriate age limits for film viewing. I'm sure that smoking can be dealt with through this certification system," he concluded.
