Looking forward to watching our Honorable Prime Minister Narendra Modiji on 'Man Vs Wild' with Bear Grylls tonight," Akshay tweeted on Monday.

Prime Minister Modi had tweeted on Monday: "What better than the lush green jungles of India, in the midst of Mother Nature to throw light on environmental conservation and climate change.. Do join at 9pm tonight." 

To which, filmmaker Karan Johar replied: " A strong message from our honourable Prime minister Narendra Modi! Something we all need to contribute to. Environmental conservation is the need of the hour. Thank you sir for all your endeavours."
