Mumbai: Actor Saif Ali Khan says being hospitalised for chest pains frightened him enough to make him quit smoking, but his real test begins now.
Khan said in Monday's Mumbai Mirror newspaper that he had no choice but to give up smoking, but the process has been hard.
Khan spent a week in the intensive care unit of a Mumbai hospital where he was admitted for chest pains in February.
He promptly quit smoking on doctors' advise and reports that the first three weeks were tough.
''But the real ordeal starts now. When I'm in a bar watching friends smoke, the urge is bound to hit me,'' he told the newspaper. ''Either I quit or I fall ill again. I almost had a heart attack because of my smoking.''
