Green makeover: Stars who turned veggie over past months

BDC News

New Delhi, Oct 15  For many stars, the new normal is green. Many Bollywood celebrities used the lockdown period to ditch a non-vegetarian diet and go vegan. While some have taken to the habit owing to climate awareness, for others it is an attempt to reduce the carbon footprint. Still others feel it is a step towards healthy living.

IANS draws up a list of celebrities who turned vegetarian during lockdown.

BHUMI PEDNEKAR

Bollywood actress and environmentalist Bhumi Pednekar became a vegetarian during lockdown, and she is loving it.

“I was never heavy on a non-vegetarian diet but I took a call during lockdown. It was actually something that happened organically. It’s been six months and I’m good, guilt free and I feel physically strong as well,” she said, adding: “For many years I wanted to go vegetarian but breaking habits are the toughest thing to do. My journey with Climate Warrior taught me a lot of things and I just didn’t feel like eating meat anymore.”

SHILPA SHETTY KUNDRA

In July, the actress and fitness enthusiast revealed that she has accepted vegetarianism completely, saying the switch seemed impossible to her initially.
