Meet Balram Halwai, the 'White Tiger': servant, philosopher, entrepreneur, murderer. Born in a backwater village on the River Ganges, the son of a rickshaw-puller, Balram works in a teashop crushing coals, wiping tables and dreaming of escape. Driven by a desire to better himself, he comes to see how the tiger might escape his cage.
