The white tiger

The book “the white tiger” is written by an Indian writer and journalist Arvind Adiga. White tiger has won 40th booker award in 2008 and a movie is also made on it.

 It is the story of Balram Halwai s life who declared himself as an entrepreneur. He writes a letter to Mr. premier Jiabao in his luxurious office in Bangalore. but the story starts from his village named Laxmanghar where he described his miserable childhood. Then he went to Dhanbad’s rich family to offer his service. He was then a driver of Mr Ashok and his wife Pinky Madam. Ashok showed him fake emotions, which he realized lately. 

When he realized it, he was so angry. Then he made a plan to murder him. He knew that if he got caught the Ashok s family would kill his family so he did everything very carefully. When they were in car, Balram pretended as there is a mechanical problem in car. When Ashok went near the tier, he murdered him there. Then he took the money from his house and escaped to Bangalore. 

In Bangalore, he created a taxi company called the WHITE TIGER DRIVERS which bought all the taxi driver home safely at night.

He mentioned in the letter to Mr. premier Jiabao that He didn’t have a fear to be caught as it was worth and it gave him a life as a free man and not as a servant.  

This book has emotions, suspense and is really enjoyable. Those who want to start reading books, they must try on this book. I will highly recommend to all the beginners.
