Discovery channel had sought permission for shooting between January 28 and January 30. The Bandipur Tiger Reserve, an 874 sq km national park, was formed by integrating forest areas of erstwhile Venugopala Wildlife Park, which was established in 1941, and was later enlarged to its current size in the Chamarajanagar district, about 220 km southwest of Bengaluru. The tiger reserve lists 28 species of mammals, including Royal Bengal tiger, Asian elephant, leopard, bonnet macaque, Indian pipistrelle and barking deer. Last year, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had featured on the show and that episode, titled Man Vs Wild with Bear Grylls & PM Modi which was one among the most-watched shows of 2019 in India. Subsequently, superstar Rajinikanth made his television debut with the show, and his episode spoke about water conservation. Rajinikanth, too, had shot for the episode in Bandipur and during the shooting of the episode, the superstar had suffered minor injuries after he reportedly tripped over a lantana bush. Bear Grylls has also hosted prominent celebrities in the past such as then sitting American President Barack Obama, Kate Winslet, Roger Federer, Julia Roberts and many more.
