Haan ji, it's the tobacco and lime in gutkha that cause the burning and stiffening, leading to fibrosis and then cancer. But see, in my college canteen, we all share that little packet of pan masala after exams, the ones marketed as "tobacco-free". It feels harmless, just a cooling sensation. So we tell ourselves it's only the tobacco, not our occasional elaichi mix, doing the damage.
