Priyanka Chopra and Hrithik Roshan first co-starred in Rakesh Roshan's 2006 film Krrish. The duo later featured together in Karan Malhotra's 2012 film Agneepath and in 2013 film Krrish 3.
The White Tiger released on Netflix last week. Priyanka Chopra and Rajkummar Rao play the roles of a rich married couple, who live with their family in India after returning from the US for their business. Adarsh Gourav plays the role of their poor driver named Balram Halwai.
The White Tiger has been receiving positive reviews from critics and viewers. In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the movie 3 stars out of 5 and wrote: "The two-hour film captures an underprivileged man's fight for freedom from "the chicken coop" that life has dumped him into. This guy is unlike others of his ilk, poverty-stricken people too broken in spirit to contemplate escape. Balram is a white tiger, 'a freak, a pervert of nature' born once a generation. He dares to dream of clawing out of the hellhole."
