Several Bollywood and Hollywood celebrities have collaborated to create a vegan cookbook filled with recipes and tips that is set for release in 2013.

The Bolly Holly Vegan Cookbook contains contributions from big names like Amrita Rao, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha and Neha Dhupia.

“It will be perfect for everyone – veteran vegans, curious newcomers and those who just want to try the occasional meatless meal – as well as both kitchen novices and culinary wizards,” said Poorva Joshipura, head of animal rights organisation People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India and vice president (International Operations), PETA Foundation UK.

Vidya Balan

Vidya Balan and MP Dr. Shashi Tharoor have been chosen as PETA India’s Sexiest Vegetarians in an online poll.

Bollywood star Balan said of the honor, “Adopting a vegetarian diet may seem like a small choice, but it has an enormous impact on the world around us. The ‘hottest vegetarian’ recognition is an honour, but if you ask me, everyone who goes vegetarian is ‘hot’, since they each make the world a better place every day.”

She has plenty of hot company in India, as some polls indicate the percentage of vegetarians in the country range from 20-42 percent.

Just because the election is over, doesn’t mean you have to wait awhile to exercise your rights. Petadishoom, the youth Bollywood version of Peta, is holding it’s second annual Sexiest Vegetarian Contest.

Lots of hot Bollywood celebrities, like Mr. Abraham pictured here, are in the running, including Kareena Kapoor, Vidya Balan, Shahid Kapoor, R.Madhavan, and Mahima Chaudhary. There are even some Hollywood people running on the ballot, including Alicia Silverstone and soon to be singing star Joaquin Phoenix.

Last year, Kareena Kapoor and R.Madhavan got bragging rights. From the list above, they’re running again, but with all the drastic political upsets that took place in the U.S. on Tuesday, there’s no telling what could happen.

So do your duties. After you’ve finished salivating over the picture of John, of course. Need to have a clear mind before making important decisions.
