Actor Ajay Devgan, who was found smoking at the city airport two days ago, will be penalised for it.

"Yes, we will serve him a challan," Chandigarhs IGP SK Jain said on Thursday.

Devgan and fellow actor Salman Khan are currently in the city for the shooting of London Dreams.

On Wednesday, after receiving legal opinion from deputy district attorney here, SSP SS Srivastava had asked DSP (south) Jaswant Singh Khaira to verify the facts.

A city-based NGO had moved a complaint that Devgan had smoked at the airport when he arrived here for the films shooting. Smoking is prohibited at public places.

Ironically, the same NGO had moved another complaint with the Railway Police on Wednesday alleging that both Devgan and Salman had "smoked" at the Kurali railway station in Punjab, near here, where the movie was being shot.

It sought immediate action against the two.
