Bollywood

Public.
The

a
fine

been
issued
against
the
actor
after
the

filed
by
the

Ajay

spotted
smoking

who
then
brought
the

of
The

the
instant
action
of
the
police
against
the
actor,
and
expressed
its
views
telling
that
though
the
fine
amount
is
less,
but
at
least
Ajay
will
realise
his
mistake
and
next
time
will
not
violate
the
law.
NOTE
also
stated
that
strict
actions
should
be
taken
against
habitual
offenders
who
dare
to
violate
the
law,
and
Ajay
Devgn
is
one
of
them.
Earlier
in
January,
the
actor
was
finned

keep
in
mind
that
his

style
is
followed
by
crores
of
fans
all
over
the
world,
and
by
showcasing
his
bad
habits
in
public,
the
actor
may
end
giving
a
bad
example
to
the
people.
