Narendra Modi arrived in Tel Aviv on Wednesday (February 25) for a short yet high-profile visit, where he received a warm welcome from his Israeli counterpart Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara Netanyahu. The leaders exchanged greetings at the airport, but it was a small fashion detail that quickly caught public attention.

PM Modi wore a traditional white kurta-pyjama paired with a sleeveless jacket and a saffron pocket square. Netanyahu noticed that the saffron accent perfectly matched his wife’s orange jacket and playfully pointed it out. The light-hearted observation instantly became a talking point online.

“You see what she wore?” Netanyahu said, gesturing toward Modi’s pocket square and then to Sara’s outfit. PM Modi immediately recognized the match and replied with a smile, “Yes, saffron.” The candid exchange added a personal touch to the diplomatic welcome.
