Prime Minister Narendra Modi enjoying a boat ride on La Siene river with French dignitaries.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and French President Francois Hollande today enjoyed a joint boat cruise on La Seine river in Paris which was described as "Naav Pe Charcha" (chat on the boat).
Mr Hollande was seen giving details to Mr Modi about various areas as the boat cruised through the river.
Many people enjoying a boat ride in the river at that time were seen waving at the dignitaries, including French ministers.
The two leaders had the boat ride after their detailed discussions, focusing on cooperation in the areas of civil nuclear energy, defence, space and trade.
Mr Modi is visiting France in the first leg of his nine-day three-nation tour that will take him to Germany and Canada also.
It was the first time that Mr Modi had 'Naav Pe Charcha' with any world leader.
Earlier, Mr Modi has had 'Chai Pe Charcha' (chat over tea)
with some world leaders, including US President Barack Obama during his visit to New Delhi in January and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe during the Indian leader's visit to Japan last year.
The concept of 'Chai Pe Charcha' became quite popular during Prime Minister Modi's campaign for the Lok Sabha polls last year.
