From Kangana Ranaut to Amitabh Bachchan: Meet Bollywood’s vegetarian brigade
We turn the spotlight on B-Town stars who’ve given up eating meat for a variety of reasons – from health to compassion.
Kangana Ranaut
The Queen actress has been having a great run of late. She says her positivity comes from her healthy lifestyle and vegetarianism is a big part of it. Kangana turned vegetarian once she moved to Mumbai, looking for a break in Bollywood.
Shahid Kapoor
He’s gorgeous proof that vegetarians can have great bods. Shahid was inspired by dad Pankaj Kapoor to turn vegetarian and is such an ardent advocate of the no-killing diet, he’s even converted friends and colleagues.
Kareena Kapoor
She used to be a chicken tikka-loving Punjabi gal. Then Shahid Kapoor came into her life and, apparently, convinced her to go vegetarian. Kareena now says that’s what accounts for the great shape she’s in.
Vidyut Jamval
Hottie Vidyut Jamval’s physique, he says, is not only a result of his workout regimen. He’s a staunch vegetarian and says that’s what keeps him looking and feeling the way he does.
Vidya Balan
The Kahaani actress has been a vegetarian forever. Hubby Siddharth Roy Kapur is a hardcore non-vegetarian, but she’s not about to change her eating habits.
Aamir Khan
Wife Kiran Rao made him watch one video on the ill effects of meat-eating and Aamir Khan was completely convinced. The actor is now a happy vegetarian.
Alia Bhatt
The 2 States actress went off meat earlier this year and has stayed away from it since. ‘Let’s see how long it lasts,’ she has said.
Amitabh Bachchan
The Big B has been a long-time vegetarian and PETA has frequently named him hottest vegetarian celebrity.
