Answer: Raveena Tandon
Notes: People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India has named award-winning Bollywood actor Raveena Tandon as its 2025 Person of the Year for her commitment to a meat-free lifestyle, wildlife protection, and advocacy for animal welfare. Earlier in 2025, she partnered with PETA India to donate a life-sized mechanical elephant to Karnataka’s Thousand Pillars Jain Temple, recognizing the temple’s decision not to own or hire live elephants. She has championed humane education through PETA India’s Compassionate Citizen programme, which fosters empathy in young learners toward animals.
