Actor Shah Rukh Khan has finally admitted that he is trying his level best to give up smoking. Yes, earlier too, he has said it several times, but this time, he says that he has a concrete plan. “I want to give up smoking and I have been trying a lot of times to give up smoking. I am actually under pressure to give up smoking now,” says Shah Rukh without elaborating where the ‘pressure’ is coming from.

However, Shah Rukh had told After Hrs earlier that his daughter Suhana had asked him to kick the butt. “My daughter refuses to kiss me when she smells cigarette on me. I will give it up soon, if not for me, then for her sake,” he had said.

This time, Shah Rukh says that he wants to do it in a phased manner. “First I want to gradually reduce the number of cigarettes that I smoke in a day. Then I will bring it down to a minimum and gradually give it up altogether,” added Shah Rukh while promoting his film Don in Dubai.

Shah Rukh used to be a chain smoker in the past and according to him he has already reduced his cigarettes intake and smokes quite less number of cigarettes in a day.
