Priyanka Chopra along with Rajkummar Rao and Adarsh Gourav is set to star in the upcoming film The White Tiger. The talented actress today revealed the first look pictures of the upcoming film.
The film is penned and directed by Ramin Bahrani. It is based on the book of Aravind Adiga, with the same title.
The White Tiger showcases the story of how a common villager rises to a successful entrepreneur.
Sharing two pictures from the film, Priyanka Chopra wrote, “So proud to present the first look of THE WHITE TIGER – directed, written, and produced by Ramin Bahrani, based on The New York Times Bestseller and the 2008 Man Booker Prize-winning novel (sic).”
She also phrased the young actor Adarsh Gourav, and wrote, “This is a story about a family and the plight of one man – Balram Halwai played by Adarsh Gourav, one of the most talented newcomers I’ve ever worked with, and one of the most remarkable performances I’ve seen in a long time. Balram’s rise from a poor villager to successful entrepreneur in modern India showcases how hunger and the lack of opportunity can build and drive a human being’s animal instinct of survival (sic).”
She further added about Rajkummar Rao, “Rajkumar Rao, already one of the most prolific actors in India, will showcase depths very few can. The film is powerful. It will make you uncomfortable, and most importantly it will entertain you (sic).”
In a separate post, Priyanka revealed about her character, “In #TheWhiteTiger, I play the role of Pinky madam, who is a first generation immigrant in the US. She is in India with her husband, who is travelling for business. And then… life changes! Pinky madam is such a specific character, to play her unravelling in the story was such a joy. This is a story that needs to be told and it comes alive with its characters so compellingly in Ramin’s hands (sic).”
