Prajaktta Mali embraces vegan diet 'by compulsion,' citing health
A famous actress named Prajaktta Mali told everyone that she is becoming vegan.
Being vegan means not eating or using things that come from animals, like milk.

Her body started having trouble with milk, and it made her cough a lot.
She hopes this change will help her feel better.
Before making her decision, she visited two important temples to pray and ask for blessings.
She also said she might stop drinking tea and coffee soon.
She joked that she is now 'cruelty-free,' except for some liars and ditchers.
Prajaktta is a well-known star in Marathi TV shows and films.
