Reports of South megastar Rajinikanth featuring in the adventure TV program Into the Wild with Bear Grylls created a buzz on social media. Pictures of the actor flying to the Bandipur forest area were soon viral. Now almost a month after the British adventurer Bear Grylls and Rajinikanth shot for Discovery Channel’s show Into the Wild in Karnataka’s national park, the channel has shared a teaser of the much-awaited episode. They have also announced that the show will premiere on March 23.
The teaser features Bear Grylls and the Thalaiva in action at Karnataka’s Bandipur Tiger Reserve and National Park.
Sharing the teaser, Discovery Channel India tweeted, “Gear up to venture into the wilderness of India with survival expert @BearGrylls and the ultimate superstar @Rajinikanth in an action-packed adventure. Premieres 23 March at 8 PM, only on Discovery #ThalaivaOnDiscovery.”
The 40-second teaser clip begins with an intro of the superstar whose face we’re not shown. He’s seen riding an all-terrain vehicle and we can also hear his trademark laugh.
After Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rajinikanth becomes the second Indian personality to be featured on Grylls’ survival show. The episode with Prime Minister Modi was aired last year in August. The episode with Rajinikanth is one of the most awaited ones and will premiere on March 23.
