   I have already tried to make realistic smoke animation using Particle system of ParticleSmoke class. But it's not a cigarette smoke. So how can I do this? Any one help me.

   Alright dood. You have all the tools at your disposal to make realistic smoke. Really it's just a lot of photoshop work and fine tuning. Look up a tutorial on how to make realistic smoke in a 3d editing program (maya, blender, 3ds), and see if you can replicate the technique in Cocos.

   I'd suggest subclassing PointParticleSystem and manipulating it...
   Really, when you do that - the sky's the limit... everything's possible, you just have to play with the particles.

   EDIT: I suggest you read up about Zombie's technique with particles, it's super EASY and COOL and memory saving...

   I made some pipe smoke:

   I used a transparent png, and slowly scrolled it, fading in and out. I think it looks pretty good.

   I agree with cjl's method: using a pre-rendered sprite. If you are looking for more variation in the smoke you can apply a grid and deform the verts in some meaningful way, though this extra deformation will cost you a little performance
