Recently, Bollywood star Ranveer Singh experienced a taste of the wild with Bear Grylls. The reality television survivalist, who gained fame with Man vs. Wild (2006), has ventured into the wild with a number of Indian celebrities, including Ajay Devgn, Vicky Kaushal, Rajinikanth, and Akshay Kumar, but never a female celebrity. After some consideration, Bear Grylls is now eager to take Priyanka Chopra on an adventure for his Netflix show.
In an interview, Bear shared his lengthy wishlist of Indian celebrities. He said, "Virat (cricketer Virat Kohli) would be amazing to adventure with -- a true heart of a lion and kind spirit. And Priyanka Chopra would be incredible - I took her husband away once on a journey and he was a great guy. People would love to hear her story.”
Even though Grylls has been to India multiple times in recent years, he has had amazing interactions with locals and Indian celebrities. He added, "The warmth of love and welcome I always feel from Indian super stars - they are always so kind and embracing to me - I feel like an honorary Indian and that is the greatest blessing I can ever ask for. India is always so close to my heart.”
Ranveer, meanwhile, is thrilled with the enthusiastic response his latest series Ranveer vs. Wild With Bear Grylls has gotten.
