Mumbai: Superstar Aamir Khan and actress Anushka Sharma have been named as the hottest vegetarians of 2015 by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).
The two winners beat a strong group of competitors, including Amitabh Bachchan, Alia Bhatt, Kangana Ranaut, Shahid Kapoor, R Madhavan and Dhanush.
"It is very important what you eat, as that is what you are. So it's very important to make sure you're eating enough vegetables and drinking enough water, which I've always done," Anushka said in a statement.

Aamir's decision to eat vegetarian food was prompted by a video about eating healthy that his wife Kiran Rao showed him.
"At the end of it, I was convinced that vegans are way ahead of non-vegetarians and even vegetarians," said Aamir.
Sachin Bangera, PETA India manager (media and celebrity projects) said that Aamir and Anushka are the perfect example of "fit vegetarians."
"And they're inspiring millions of their fans to try plant-based foods", he added.
