Mumbai, Actress Shilpa Shetty is the latest Bollywood personality to join the 
campaign against performing animals at circuses. Joining the campaign by 
People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), Shetty comes by posing in a 
hugging bodysuit about to leap through a ring of fire. The ad has the tagline 
"Beaten, Lonely and Abused" and "Boycott the Circus". 



According to PETA, the campaign highlights the ban on use of animals like 
bears, monkeys, tigers, panthers and lions. 
The use of these animals in circuses was banned by a 1998 central government 
notification, which was upheld in May 2001 by the Supreme Court.
