Kartik Aaryan becomes the new face of PETA India

Handsome hunk Kartik Aaryan has become the new face of PETA’s Go Vegetarian campaign. The ‘Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety’ star has been appointed the new face of PETA India. Kartik said, “It only took one video of animals suffering and dying in the meat industry to convince me to go vegetarian. The kindest thing anybody can do for cows, pigs, chickens, and all animals is to stop eating them.”

As PETA India – whose motto reads, in part, that “animals are not ours to eat” – reveals in its video exposé “Glass Walls”, chickens killed for food are often shackled upside-down before their throats are slit. Cows and buffaloes are crammed into vehicles in such large numbers that their bones often break before they’re dragged off to the slaughterhouse, and pigs are stabbed in the heart as they scream. On the decks of fishing boats, fish suffocate or are cut open while they’re still alive.

Aaryan joins Anushka Sharma, Shahid Kapoor and many other celebrities who’ve teamed up with PETA India to promote healthy, humane meat-free meals. In 2018, Kartik was chosen as India’s Hottest Vegetarian by PETA.

Taking to his Instagram handle Kartik shared a picture of him with baby chicks perched on his hand. Here’s the post.

On the professional front, Kartik is roped in for ‘Pati Patni Aur Woh’ remake. Also, he will be reportedly seen opposite Sara Ali Khan in Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Love Aaj Kal’ sequel. His next release is ‘Luka Chuppi’ that has Kriti Sanon alongside him.
