-

Actors Anushka Sharma and Kartik Aaryan have been named India’s Hottest Vegetarian­s, according to votes on the official website of People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) India. Sharma has become the first two-time female winner of the title, having previously won in 2015.

The actress, who was also named Peta India’s Person of the Year in 2017, recently starred in an ad campaign for PetaIndia, proclaimin­g: “I am Anushka Sharma, and I’m a vegetarian.”

“Going vegetarian was one of the best decisions I ever made. I have more energy, I feel healthier, and I’m so happy that no animals had to suffer for my meals,” Sharma said in a statement.

Aaryan said it only took watching one video of animals suffering and dying in the meat industry to convince him to go vegetarian.
