All three posed in red gowns for the ad titled "Compassion Is Beautiful. Speak Up for Animals" to encourage people to show kindness towards all animals.

"Animals depend on all of us to be their angels. Even little acts of kindness can make a huge difference in their lives. I encourage everyone to share the world with animals by always acting with compassion and reporting cruelty," Miss India World Mamgai said in a statement.

The ad an initiative by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) India to protect animals. Miss India Earth Faria also adores animals and said: "We owe it to ourselves to protect animals so that indirectly, we help ourselves."

Miss India International Hinge added: "Use your voice, stand up for what is right, and speak out against cruelty to animals. Peace on earth begins with how we treat those who are the most helpless".
