Sharing photographs with PM Modi, former US President Barack Obama and Prince William, Grylls wrote, “I’ve met some of the most powerful leaders in the world. The best ones were never the loudest”.
The post comes seven years after Grylls and PM Modi appeared together in a special episode of Man vs Wild, filmed at Jim Corbett National Park in Uttarakhand in 2019.
The globally broadcast Discovery Channel episode featured the two exploring the forest, building a makeshift raft from reeds and discussing the importance of environmental conservation.
During the journey, PM Modi spoke about how his time in the Himalayas during his younger years shaped his life and strengthened his connection with nature.
Grylls has also praised the Prime Minister on earlier occasions, describing him as a “great sport” and a “remarkable world leader.”
