The whole world is now seeing India with changed eyes, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said while addressing the Indian community here Thursday.

"The whole world is now seeing India through a changed eye. They are looking at ways to reach out to us," Modi said at the community reception.

"We have started the 'Make in India' initiative and we want everyone to come and look at the opportunities that India has to offer," Modi said.

Earlier in the day, Modi had a series of meetings beginning with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, followed by those with Philippines President Benigno Simeón Cojuangco Aquino III, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Indonesian President Joko Widodo.

He also had a brief interaction with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

The prime minister also addressed the 9th East Asia Summit.

Modi will later Thursday night fly to Australia to attend the G20 summit in Brisbane.
