convert date to timestamp and store into table using trigger mysql

Using trigger I convert DateTime into a timestamp and then store into another table. But somehow convert date into timestamp always affected by timezone so that's why I had use convert_tz of date and then try to store in the database but it's not working for me.

TRIGGER :

DELIMITER $$
CREATE TRIGGER `insert_cdrs_data` AFTER INSERT ON `cdrs` FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
        insert into cdrs_data1(`id`,`timestamp`,`accountid`,`type`,`calldate`) VALUES (new.id,UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CONVERT_TZ(new.calldate, @@global.time_zone, '+0:00')),new.accountid,new.type,new.calldate);
    insert into cdrs_data2(`id`,`timestamp`,`accountid`,`type`,`calldate`) VALUES (new.id,UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CONVERT_TZ(new.calldate,'+0:00',@@global.time_zone)),new.accountid,new.type,new.calldate);
END;
$$
DELIMITER ;

Here we can see that for table cdrs_data1 UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CONVERT_TZ(new.calldate,@@global.time_zone,'+0:00')

For the table: cdrs_data2

UNIX_TIMESTAMP(CONVERT_TZ(new.calldate,'+0:00',@@global.time_zone)

OUTPUT :

cdr_data 1 :

After change database session and global timezone value timestamp value is not correct showing in above queries.

Question : How to store date into timestamp using trigger in GMT+0:00 without change timezone or in other terms its should not affect by timezone.

Note : Right now its not possible to restart mysql so i can't set timezone into the my.cnf file.
