These Indian Vegan Celebs Are Giving Us Some Solid Health Goals

Famous Indian celebrities have demonstrated that a non-vegetarian diet is not always the road to good health and fitness. Many Bollywood stars who are vegans now once used to be hardcore meat eaters. They have resolved to abstain from all meat and dairy items. Many of them are from firmly non-vegetarian backgrounds. Thus, this switch was unexpected. They are now acing how vegan diets help them stay fit, healthy and happy. On World Vegan Day, it's time to draw inspiration from them.

Sonam Kapoor

The vegan turned Sonam Kapoor got honoured by PETA and named "Person of the Year" in 2018 and the "Hottest Vegetarian of 2016." She has always been outspoken about her love and support for animals. Thus, despite hailing from a Punjabi family with strong non-vegetarian diet culture, she became vegetarian first and later vegan. Another reason for switching to veganism was growing lactose intolerance. The pretty actor Sonam keeps using her Instagram to post healthy vegan foods. Sometimes, it's a dish she ate or something she cooked and so on. Such posts have a significant influence on her fans. Sonam also uses her clothing company and her expertise in fashion to promote her vegan way of life.

Anushka Sharma

Anushka Sharma makes no secret of her fondness for animals. A few years ago, the actress chose to go vegan. Previously, she was a fervent meat eater. She has also persuaded her husband, cricketer Virat Kohli, to choose a cruelty-free- diet. She recently visited Parish, and while there, she uploaded a photo of two half-cut hamburgers that caused her to face a quandary. She captioned it, "couldn't decide between the vegan mutton or chicken patties". And we resonated with her dilemma about good food.

This handsome dusky Indian celeb is one of the stars who transitioned from vegetarianism to veganism. It implies that the actor also quit eating dairy products, even though he didn't eat any meat, to begin with. He has consistently supported animal rights throughout his movie career. He was honoured as the "Person of the Year" by PETA in 2012.

Everyone typically assumes that John Abraham's physique can only be achieved by a high-protein, non-vegetarian diet. But hold on! Like many other celebrities, he became a vegan supporting animal right and his compassion for them. He was the face of the "Mercy for Animals" ad campaign, which urged people to put an end to animal abuse. John definitely benefits from his belief that eating meat is not necessary to maintain a fit and chiseled body.

Alia Bhatt reportedly switched to veganism in 2020. She previously confirmed that she became a vegetarian to maintain her health. Unsurprisingly, she is vegan because we know her affection for animals, especially cats. Alia is also credited for founding CoExist, an organisation dedicated to the welfare of stray animals in India. The Gangubai actor, who is currently in the third trimester of her pregnancy, chose vegan food for her baby shower.
