He also praised PM Modi and said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one of the finest leaders in the world today. India is already a world power."

According to a New18 report, Errol had earlier praised Hinduism and said, "I think if the entire world followed Shiva, it would be just fine. I’m not an expert, but I find Hinduism fascinating. It’s so ancient—it boggles the mind. The depth and history of the religion show us just how little we actually understand about the past. There’s a profound sense of continuity and spirituality in India that is truly humbling."
