A RHINOCEROS NAMED AFTER THIS POPULAR ACTRESS WHO MADE HER DEBUT WITH 'EN SWASA KAATRE'

Bollywood actress Diya Mirza rose to fame after winning Miss Asia Pacific 2000 title. She has been part of several hit films like Dus, Lage Raho Munnabhai, Shootout at Lokhandwala, Krazzy 4 and the recently released Sanju.

But what many don't know is that Diya made her on-screen debut as a group dancer in a Tamil film titled En Swasa Kaatre.

Dia Mirza is also known for her philanthropist traits, she is a UN Environment Goodwill Ambassador and the brand ambassador of Wildlife Trust of India. Now a baby rhinoceros in Kenya has been named after this pretty actress.

Dia took to her Twitter space to thank the conservancy for this kind gesture, "Thank you @OlPejeta for naming this beautiful baby after me!!! It means the world to me. Thank you Richard, Hamid, Sarah, Elodie, Yaqoob and team for this privilege 🙏🏻🦏 Visit #OlPejetaConservancy, take a pic with Dia and tag me! Win for the wild with @airarabiagroup :)"
