    He is a chain smoker himself, but recently on his birthday said that he wanted to quit smoking. And now Shah Rukh Khan may feature in an anti-smoking campaign.
    SRK's pledge to quit smoking has come in for profuse praise from Union Minister for Health Anbumani Ramadoss who has sought the Bollywood star's cooperation in anti-smoking campaign.
    Ramadoss, a known champion of the anti-tobacco cause, has written a letter to SRK telling him that "such a public health pronouncement by a charismatic personality" like him would go a long way in weaning the youth away from tobacco.
    In the letter, the minister noted that SRK's pledge on the eve of his 40th birthday recently, has come at a time when the government is taking a series of measures to prevent the use of tobacco in general and the dangers of smoking in particular.
    Ramadoss, who recently mooted the idea of banning on-screen, smoking, told the superstar that tobacco consumption continues to be a major preventable cause of death worldwide. Every year, four million people die of tobacco related causes worldwide and in South-East Asia alone, the number of such deaths exceed five lakhs, that is one person dying every eight seconds, he said.
