PM Sharif, 66, had successful open heart surgery in a London hospital in May, his second cardiac procedure in five years.
“Indian Prime Minister Modi called Prime Minister Sharif on the occasion of Eid,” Sharif’s office said in a statement. “He also wished him well for his health post-surgery.”
Wednesday is a national holiday in Pakistan on the auspicious account of Eid-ul-Fitr, marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan, when Muslims fast from dawn till dusk.
Before the surgery in May, Sharif had also telephoned Modi to thank him for his wishes for a quick recovery.
