Veganism has become a huge diet trend in our country, where people quit the consumption and use of animal and dairy products to pledge their support towards animals. Vegans do not consume eggs, fish, meat and even dairy and do not support the use of commodities that have been produced from animals.
With hundreds of people adopting the ‘vegan-trend’ everyday, let’s see how our Bollywood celebrities have taken the first step towards a vegan lifestyle.
