Dia Mirza celebrated International Women's Day on 8th March with her fans on Twitter, where she encouraged her male and female fans to pledge, using the Hash Tag #ThisWomensDay.

Dia pledged on Twitter (@deespeak), saying '#ThisWomensDay I pledge to make place for myself in my list of priorities. If I take care of myself will I be able to take of my family.` Many fans replied with their pledges. Dia's male fans, too, took a pledge to respect the fairer sex. A female fan tweeted, `#thiswomensday Pledge to live, not survive. From HER, heroes are born!`. Dia retweeted and even responded to few of the many pledges by her enthusiastic fans. The actor also shared an inspiring image, introducing the solar engineers of Rajasthan. The tweet read, `These women brought about change by empowering themselves. Meet the solar engineers from Rajasthan. #ThisWomensDay`


Women's Day has always held a special place in Dia's life. A photoshoot, 14 years ago for a Women's Day edition, played a stepping stone in the gorgeous actor's career. Since then, the actor has been making her presence felt every year with her work and appearances, on this globally recognized day.

Dia Mirza, the woman of substance, has been making a difference to the society in whichever way she can. Women need to appreciate and take care of themselves, along with being respected by others. This act of Dia, on this special day, reiterates that.
