Priyanka, last seen in 'The Sky Is Pink', had wrapped up the shoot in December 2019. She had shared a post on social media after completing the schedule of the film.

"Happy tired.. but so excited to have wrapped #thewhitetiger. It was such a pleasure to work with the best in the business in every department," Priyanka wrote on Instagram.



The White Tiger, which was published in 2008, bagged the 40th Man Booker Prize in the same year.  The novel focuses on the story of Balram Halwai, who becomes a successful entrepreneur. Book adaptation is always a tricky business but Ramin has a solid reputation when it comes to making films. We hope the director does full justice to the project.
