Rajkummar Rao and Priyanka Chopra have decided to step back to let their relatively unknown co-star Adarsh Gourav take to the limelight in The White Tiger.
“See, they knew from the start that The White Tiger was Adarsh Gourav’s film. They knew it was his film from the moment they agreed to get on board in the project. Director Ramin Bahrani is a formidable talent. He was not going to increase Priyanka’s role just because she’s a global star. From the start she and Raj knew the extent of their parts. And they were okay with Gourav taking centre stage in the film, and now in the promotions,” informs a source close to the project.
Gourav is shocked by all the attention that he is getting. He told media that his co-stars made him feel comfortable all throughout the making of the film. And he was introduced to the American media bt Priyanka Chopra as the star of the show.
