New York, Feb 15 - Filmmaker Quentin Tarantino says he and actor Brad Pitt stay from smoking pot while lensing their films.

In 2009, the duo had come together for the critically acclaimed and commercially successful "Inglourious Basterds".

And though both seem to like their reefer, they prefer to stay away from it while shooting.

"Brad doesn't smoke while he's acting," the New York Daily News quoted Tarantino, as saying.

He added: "And I don't smoke while I'm directing." (ANI)
