PM Modi in Israel meets cast of Israeli TV series ‘Fauda’: ‘No undercover work’

During his recent visit to Israel, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with the cast of the popular Israeli TV series 'Fauda', which is known for its gripping portrayal of military operations and counter-terrorism. The series, inspired by the real-life experiences of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), has gained international acclaim and is available for streaming on Netflix. Modi's engagement with the show's actors highlights the cultural ties between India and Israel, which have strengthened over the years due to shared interests in security and counter-terrorism. Although the meeting was light-hearted, with Modi joking about the lack of undercover work, it underscores the significance of media in shaping perceptions of complex geopolitical issues. This visit also reflects Modi's ongoing efforts to bolster India's international relations, particularly in the fields of defense and technology, as India looks to enhance its strategic partnership with Israel.
