A 15-year-old boy from Hyderabad who was inspired by the protagonist Rocky Bhai from Kannada film KGF Chapter Two smoked a pack of cigarettes in two days in his very first attempt and fell sick.

He was brought to a private hospital with complaints of breathlessness, dry cough and sore throat. Doctors at Century Hospital, Banjara Hills, announced they had treated the teenager, who was brought for out-patient consultation in mid May.

The boy, from Rajendra Nagar, was in need of immediate medical attention to provide relief from the after-effects of smoking cigarettes.
