Last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a special appearance on an episode of Bear Grylls' Man Vs Wild, when they made a trip to Uttarakhand's Jim Corbett National Park. Earlier, news agency ANI reported that Akshay Kumar will also appear on Bear Grylls' show.
On the professional front, Rajinikanth was last seen in the 2019 film Darbar. His next release Annaatthe, directed by Siva, is expected to hit the screens by the end of this year.
