Why is everyone here so triggered by the White Tiger? That’s how the majority of India lives, please get outside your white collar bubbles. And stop saying “the media always shows poverty”, they also released shows like Bollywood Wives and Indian Matchmaking.

Glorifying poverty from a third world country is like saying lets show hungry kids from Africa to grab eyeballs, does not mean it doesn’t exist, just means its exploitative and kinda stereotypical

So it should not be shown?

First of all they did not make the movie to portray India one way or the other - it based on a book - written by an Indian ; go read it first and then get triggered 😃

Loved the book! It was way better than the movie

It's a freaking fantastic movie. I read the book ages ago, it was good and, I don't say this often, the movie adaptation is even better.

What’s there to be triggered about? There is a difference between poverty porn making/adapting a movie whose clear and honest objective is to show the class divide. Exploitative movies were Bandit Queen, City of Joy made purely for the western audience’s pleasure

Found a most enlightening work on decolonial history with tons of TIL moments especially about Anti Colonial movements in Egypt, China, Japan and course India in the 19th and 20th centuries. Most histories this period often adopt a Euro-centric lens but this book flips it and tells the stories of these turbulent times from the vantage point of the pioneering Asian leaders like Tagore, Al Afghani, Kang Youwei etc. Lovers of Asian history would surely appreciate this book
