Television host Bear Grylls on Friday recalled his fondest memory with Prime Minister Narendra Modi when the two filmed for the popular jungle survival series ‘Man vs Wild’ on Discovery channel in 2019.
Sharing a throwback picture from the show on his Twitter handle, the British adventurer said that it is one of his favourite photos.
In the post, Modi and Grylls can be seen sharing a cup of tea at the Jim Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand.
“One of my favourite photos: soaking wet and sharing a cup of tea with Prime Minister Modi after our @Discovery jungle adventure together. This moment reminds me of how the wild is the ultimate leveller. We are all the same behind the titles and masks,” Grylls captioned his post.
The picture has gained over 87,000 likes and 15,000 retweets.
Titled ‘Man vs Wild with Bear Grylls and PM Modi’, the episode featured the Prime Minister’s experience in the wild tackling heavy rain and exploring wildlife alongside Grylls.
During the episode, Modi also shared his humble beginnings as a tea-seller’s son and his solo trips of spiritual awakening into the Himalayas.
The programme ended with Grylls complimenting Modi for his positive spirit and calling him an “iconic global leader”.
