If you are looking to switch, take a look at these eleven celebrities who turned vegetarian.

1. Shraddha Kapoor

In 2020, PETA announced Shraddha Kapoor as the ‘hottest’ vegetarian. Sometime back, Shraddha also took to Instagram to open up about not consuming meat. Sadly, she received a lot of flak in the comment section. But, Shraddha still remains a vegetarian.

5. Kangana Ranaut

Despite being born into a family that thrives on eating non-vegetarian food, Kangana turned into a vegetarian for a spiritual reason. In an interview, she said, “Spiritually, being a non-vegetarian was blocking me. It was hard to leave and I won’t say that I don’t crave it, but you can do it with your willpower.” She also mentioned that she turned vegan as well since dairy gave her acidity. Like Amitabh Bachchan and Shraddha Kapoor, Kangana has also been named in the Hottest vegetarian PETA title.

10 & 11. Riteish & Genelia Deshmukh

Both Riteish Deshmukh and Genelia have given up on meat and turned into vegetarians a few years ago. Do you know the couple also have a venture named Imagine Meats, which makes plant-based meat? Plant-based meat is a good substitute for non-veg food. Riteish took to social media to share a note on his vegetarian lifestyle. In this post, he wrote, “I have been a hardcore meat eater who turned vegetarian 4 years ago. Let me be honest there have been times when I have craved the taste and indulgence of meat. With Plant-Based Meat around, I am a much happier vegetarian now. I would rather just imagine meat.”

On ditching meat, Genelia Deshmukh confessed, “Turning vegetarian was a choice I took a couple of years ago.. I honestly thought it was going to be really really tough but I was determined to make it work.. On my journey, I realised the beauty of plants, the various colours I see through them and eventually the nutrients I get through them but most importantly I feel less cruel to animals…”
