Vivek Oberoi goes the veggie way.

Bollywood Hot Actor Vivek Oberoi, who recently turned vegetarian, has been hailed as "the real hero for all animals" by the animal welfare organization PETA.

After learning that Oberoi has gone the veggie way, members of the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India sent a gift to the actor thanking him for his kind choice.

"By going vegetarian, Vivek Oberoi has proved that he is a real hero for all animals", PETA's Campaign Coordinator Nikunj Sharma said in a statement.

"Kicking the meat habit is the best thing that anyone can do for animals, their own health and the Earth," Sharma added.

Oberoi reportedly left eating meat after being persuaded by his Kurbaan co-star Kareena Kapoor who is a strict vegan. Another Bollywood heartthrob, who prefers vegetables over meat, is Shahid Kapoor.
