Idiot smokes cigarette on plane, received 15-day ban from airline [1]

In an obvious publicity stunt, a man was recorded smoking a cigarette as he lay sprawled across a row of seats on a passenger jet in India. I think the guy who recorded the video was in on the stunt, as he focuses on a name printed on the man's pants.
He gives off the vibes of Robert De Niro smoking a cigar in the movie theater in Cape Fear.
Jyotiraditya M. Scindia, India's Minister for Civil Aviation, said the man was "banned from flying on Spicejet flights for 15 days." That's it?
