the Karnataka health department has issued a showcause notice to Yash, the lead actor of the film, who plays protagonist Rocky Bhai in KGF : Chapter 2, one of the most anticipated movie of the year.
The teaser has a scene where Yash light a cigarette with the barrel of the red-hot gun.
According to the notice, as per the statutory requirement, it is mandatory to display a warning on the screen with the caption "Smoking is injurious to health", but neither the teaser nor the publicity posters display any such message.
"Both the teaser and the posters encourage cigarette smoking," the notice stated and appealed Yash to take steps to remove this teaser from social media platforms.
