Cant smoke in the public areas atleast in Delhi....When i was in Mumbai last we just went and sat outside for 2 hours and got our fill .... exclusive lounges allow smoking but then not everyone can get into them....i managed once in a while to find staff loo's and light up..but getting more and more difficult

I think the open bar outside the common Oberoi ?? Lounge allowed smoking. At least it was true till end of last month.

total discrimination against minorities

but its amazing - how the imagination lights up looking for nooks and crannies to light up in...
the more desperate - gosh - more them means!!

puchoo - methinks we must share strategies to outfox the establishment!

where theres a wills - theres a smoke!

I found no smoking area(s) in the Mumbai airport. I had to step outside to satisfy my craving.

Chennai departure lounge has a smoking room.

I don't know if it is still the case, but when I flew via Kuwait a few years ago I was amazed to see even staff casually smoking!

(

I still can't believe that Brishti smokes. I mean, she seems such a nice girl!

i am nice nick, how can you ever doubt that

just rigidly following my proctologist's prescription - specifically advices against a smoking bum
