Priyanka Chopra on why she fought for involvement in The White Tiger

When Priyanka Chopra Jonas heard one of her favorite books was getting made into a movie, she said she knew that she had to get involved. She had read The White Tiger by Indian author Aravind Adiga not long after it came out in 2008, when it won the coveted Man Booker Prize. The story follows Balram Halwai, an Indian village boy who becomes a rich man's servant and scrapes his way out of poverty and unfair treatment. In addition to executive producing the film, she stars in it alongside Adarsh Gourav, who plays Balram. The White Tiger premieres on Netflix on January 22.
