Fardeen's Battle with Nicotine

Actor Fardeen Khan was spotted at a recent fashion show looking younger and better than he has in a while. Ann op around for the secret? Its called giving up the fag!

An unrestricted chain smoker, Fardeen would go through nearly thirty cigarettes a day. Now he has been smoke and ash free for twenty days, refusing to succumb to the urge to light a cigarette. Reports claim the expected withdrawal symptoms he had to face, including headaches, anxiety and insomnia, but his willpower won over these obstacles, and he is enroute a healthier lifestyle.

Naturally, one wishes to know the motivation behind this give up ...

Fardeen reveals that he lost his father to this addiction, and to have undergone that hard loss has strengthened his resolve to quit - an attempt he had failed at twice previously. Better sense just struck him one fine morning, when he woke up with this new found resolution. And ever since, there has been no looking back!

To all reading smokers: here's inspiration. To Fardeen: Go you!
