Dia Mirza enjoys a fun session at the gym with her little companion

Dia Mirza shares adorable workout video with son Avyaan and pens a powerful post on Mumbai's ecological crisis, urging for nature preservation.

"Our trees are not martyrs. They were never meant to be. - Dia Mirza"

Mumbai, March 13

Actress Dia Mirza has been on a fitness journey, uploading daily glimpses of her intense workout sessions on social media. However, during her latest workout session, the 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein' actress was joined by her little companion.

Dia took to the Stories section of her official Instagram handle and uploaded a black-and-white video of doing squats with her hands held in a namaste. Joining her mom, her son, and little Avyaan was also seen imitating her.

As Dia counted till 10, her little munchkin continued to copy his mother, while looking at her with an adorable expression.

If one goes through the social media feed of the 'Sanju' actress, they will come across several similar posts with her son Avyaan.

She also often uses the platform to raise awareness regarding the ongoing environmental crisis.

Recently, Dia expressed her concern over the ongoing environmental degradation. She said that even her almost five-year-old understands that when trees are cut down, "we are not clearing land, we are erasing life."

Stressing the importance of preserving nature, the 'Thappad' actress penned on her IG, "More Green Please. Our trees are not martyrs. They were never meant to be."

Focusing on the current ecological crisis faced by Mumbai, Dia went on to share, "Mumbai is losing the very life systems that allow us to breathe - in Aarey, along our mangrove belts, across hills, creeks and forests that have quietly protected us for generations. Old growth trees that hold biodiversity, regulate climate, absorb floods and give us oxygen cannot simply be 'replaced.' A sapling planted somewhere else does not equal a living forest."

She pointed out that development should not come at the cost of the destruction of the very thing that is the basis of life - the nature.

"If progress demands the destruction of the very systems that sustain us, then we must ask ourselves: progress for whom? Because the comforts of a few cannot come at the cost of a future that becomes unlivable for all," the post futher read.

Her point about Mumbai's ecology is spot on. We are sacrificing our mangroves and Aarey forest for concrete jungles. Development is important, but not at this cost. Need more celebrities to speak up like this.

Respectfully, while I appreciate her activism, I sometimes feel these posts are for social media validation. How many trees has she actually planted or saved? Action speaks louder than Instagram stories. Just my two cents.

"Our trees are not martyrs." What a powerful line! It's heartbreaking to see old-growth trees being cut for metro sheds and coastal roads. She's raising her son with the right values. More green please, indeed! 🌿

The mother-son workout video is pure gold! It's great to see a Bollywood star using their platform for genuine issues like the environment. The message about not being able to replace a living forest is crucial for urban planning everywhere.

As a Mumbaikar, I feel her concern deeply. The air quality is worsening, and the floods are getting worse every monsoon because we're destroying our natural buffers. We need sustainable development, not this reckless construction.
