Why Bollywood’s Greatest Star Decided To Go Vegan

Posted on March 27, 2016 By Going Vegan 11 Comments on Why Bollywood’s Greatest Star Decided To Go Vegan

Definitely, if celebrities decide to go vegan, it arrests a lot of attention. Suddenly, those fans who use to admire them start to question their diet habits. Now, this has also happened in India, a country which is inhabited by 1.25 billion people. From these people many can be considered to be raving fans of Khan, the greatest Bollywood star ever in India. So, if these people start to reconsider their diet habits, it could turn out that many of them might go vegan in the end. However, Khan has no intention to allude to his new diet habits in his movies or in any other type of media. His philosophy is that everyone has to make this decision on his or her own. With this great attitude he could even draw in many more people to follow in his footsteps than any convincing “vegan campaign” could ever achieve.

“India is an enormous country, we’re talking 1.25 billion people enormous, so when one of their biggest stars decides to adopt a plant-based diet, it’s going to get some attention.

Which is exactly what happened when Bollywood star Aamir Khan announced that he was taking his diet to the next level and going vegan. Inspired to make the shift for health reasons after his wife, Kiran Rao, showed him a video of common ailments that can be avoided by dietary changes, Khan, who wasn’t even vegetarian, went cold Tofurky and dropped animal products all in one go.

His decision has been met with surprise in the media, with many articles expressing wonder at the fact that being vegan means actually, you know, being vegan. Once a serious meat eater, the press can’t believe that along with eschewing meat Khan is also removing dairy products such as ghee and paneer. While he has admitted that he misses yogurt, he feels that veganshave the upper hand on health over those who include animal products on their plates.

The media has also expressed concern that Khan’s choice to go plant-based will guide his son toward the diet, even though he has stated that it is ultimately up to his son to decide what he eats. This has also led some to question whether or not Khan was going to try and coerce his fans to adopt it as well!

While no plans have been announced for Khan to embed subliminal messages into his films or compel moviegoers to look deeply into his eyes as he hypnotizes them into choosing veganism yet, it appears that his immediate plans are just to try and be healthy and not fill his body with animal products.

That’s not to say the response has been all shock and trepidation. His choice has garnered a positive response as well, with producers of Master Chef 4 approaching him to judge the finale of their all vegetarian season this year. Positive, negative or in-between, Khan’s dietary decisions have opened a dialogue in the country about plant-based diets and what they mean. Any way you dice that, the exposure is a great thing.”
