The White Tiger (2021): Story, Cast, Release Date, Budget, Collection, Review, Ratings & More

The White Tiger

The White Tiger is a powerful social drama that exposes the harsh realities of India’s class system through the eyes of an ambitious servant. Written and directed by Ramin Bahrani and based on Aravind Adiga’s Booker Prize-winning novel, the film stars Adarsh Gourav in a breakout performance as Balram Halwai, a clever village boy who manipulates his way from poverty to entrepreneurial success.

The story unfolds as Balram recounts his transformation from tea shop worker to chauffeur for a wealthy family, and ultimately to self-made businessman through increasingly desperate measures. Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Rajkummar Rao deliver compelling performances as his employers, representing India’s privileged elite who remain oblivious to their servants’ humanity.

Set against the backdrop of modern India’s economic boom, the film offers a darkly satirical critique of corruption, inequality, and the moral compromises required to escape systemic oppression. The White Tiger earned critical acclaim and an Academy Award nomination for Best Adapted Screenplay.
