Dia Mirza is one of the finest actresses of her time. She is immensely loved for her acting sense and style statements. In addition, Dia is an environmentalist and never misses a chance to voice her love for Mother Nature. Dia's advocacy towards protecting the environment has also been adapted by her. Not only does she follow strict principles while maintaining her lavish lifestyle in a nature-friendly manner, but she also incorporates her love and connection with the environment in her son, Avyaan's upbringing.
For Dia's immense contribution to protecting Mother Earth and raising her voice towards the cruelty shown by people towards nature has also given her immense popularity. She has been able to make a firm foot on the global platform and lead her voice to her millions of fans. From opting for a friendly and biodegradable-styled wedding with the love of her life, Vaibhav Reki, to spending a huge amount of time in the wild, Dia has often given pure goals. Thus, due to all of this, just like many other awards, she has also been declared as PETA India's 2023 'Person of the Year'. Sharing the news with her fanbase, she posted a photo of herself hugging an elephant in collaboration with the official handle of PETA India.

However, it must be mentioned that Dia has already declared that she wasn't a vegetarian by birth. Instead, she turned into a vegetarian after becoming an adult and now follows that wholeheartedly. Moreover, she has also clearly mentioned that she sometimes cooks non-vegetarian foods for her family but never consumes the same. However, apart from this time, Dia has also garnered social media flak for her multiple public stances. For instance, when she learned to ride a bike for her last released film, Dhak Dhak, netizens commented on her for not considering environmental pollution while taking up such a role, among others.

Well, without giving the trolls any attention, Dia keeps living her life on her own terms while paying her due respect to Mother Nature. For instance, on May 15, 2023, when Dia's son, Avyaan turned two years old, the doting mommy shared an array of glimpses of pictures from her son's nature-themed birthday bash on her IG handle. For the same, Dia was seen holding Avyaan in her arms while cutting his second birthday cake that featured animals like a giraffe, elephant, monkey, and lion as cake toppings. The party had kid-friendly activities like colouring the sheets and playing with the small animal toys. Moreover, everyone sat on mats, and it was a sustainable birthday party with zero waste. The actress revealed the same and wrote:
"Zero waste, zero plastic birthday. Because what’s good for our children is good for the planet."
