PETA has launched a brand new ad featuring Bollywood actor Shahid Kapoor promoting vegetarianism.

Holding two chicks in the palms of his hands, Shahid flashes a smile that helped him win PETA India’s Sexiest Vegetarian of 2009 award.

“I love chicks… pigs, cows, fish, and all the other animals too,” Shahid said. “That’s why I turned vegetarian.”

“I am very happy being a vegetarian and I believe that it is the best way to be. The day I started believing in the fact that I would want not to kill animals for my taste buds that is the day everything changed for me.”

A video featuring a behind the scenes interview with Shahid during the shoot can be viewed below.

What Bollywood star has only recently discovered vegetarian sushi?

None other than Shahid Kapoor.

Co-star Vir Das from his latest film, Badmaash Company, is responsible for the addiction.

While shooting for the film, the two would often go out for dinner together and the same cuisine always got suggested.

“It turned out to be a big hit with Shahid and every night they all went out to a new sushi place,” said a source.

“I don’t think Shahid had eaten sushi before. I took everybody to one of the best sushi places in Bangkok that had a wide vegetarian selection,” Vir said. “I love sushi. It’s healthy, it’s fast and tasty too.”

When making vegetarian sushi at home, don’t forget to peruse Mark Bittman’s tips for doing so.

“This is something very personal. I changed because something inside me made me want to change. These are very personal choices, which can only be made by yourself; nobody else can force them on you. So I will never profess such a thing because it is an individual decision.”

—-Shahid Kapoor, on his decision to go vegetarian, as quoted by Indian Express.

Like many vegetarians who travel to a country different than their home, Shahid Kapoor is a little nervous about finding decent food in Bangkok.

Shahid was scheduled to leave today for Thailand to begin filming for a Parmeet Sethi film.

Shahid recalled the last time he was in the U.S. for 40 days, his assistant had to work extra hard to make sure chefs cooked everything to his preference, as he’s a vegetarian who has some vegan streaks in him, like not eating eggs.

Does Shahid’s right hand man know about Happycow.com, where he can find dozens of vegetarian eateries in Bangkok, or anywhere else in the world?

Wishing Shahid best of luck.

Hunger sure gets in the way of good acting.

Much veggie ado is taking place on Jane Velez-Mitchell‘s Facebook.

A fan recently asked Jane, a vegan, if she was thinking of bringing her dogs over to that side, too.

“Hey Jane, I was just wondering, since you own Chihuahuas and your a vegetarian, do you have your dogs eating “meat-free” dog food? There are such products for dogs and cats of owners that are vegans, but dogs and cats are naturally meat eaters, so I think its bad to their health to restrict meat from their diet. What do you think?”

A vegetarian Chihuahua?

Yo quiero comida sin carne!

Lots of pet owners, including celebrities like Alicia Silverstone, Shahid Kapoor, and Paul McCartney, have put their dogs and cats on vegetarian diets, with special attention being paid to cats since it’s essential to have food that contains taurine, found mainly in chicken.

But vegan dog and cat food exists.

Have you made your pet go veg?

Did Whiskers enjoy the new meatless dish or did he develop a Goode Family dog Che syndrome?
