The White Tiger, which was written and adapted by Ramin Bahrani (Man Push Cart, 99 Homes), casts Adarsh Gourav as Balram, a clever, conniving young man from a poor coal-mining area, who is robbed of a bright academic future by the landlordâs demands of his family.
Balram follows these wealthy predators to the city, where he falls in with the landlordâs liberal younger son, Ashok (Rajkummar Rao), who has recently returned from the United States with his Indian-American wife, Pinky (Chopra Jonas). Balramâs ambition and the ruling classâs greed forge a tale that marries Dickensian striving with the callousness of Patricia Highsmithâs Mr Ripley.
