Actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas will serve as the narrator of the upcoming film "Tiger" for Disney-owned studio Disneynature. Described as a compelling story that lifts the veil on the planet's most revered and charismatic animal, the film will start streaming on Disney+ Hotstar on Earth Day on April 22. "Tiger" will take the viewers on a journey alongside Ambar, a young tigress raising her cubs in the fabled forests of India. "In the film, the cubs-curious, rambunctious and at times a bit clumsy-have a lot to learn from their savvy mother who will do all she can to keep them safe from pythons, bears and marauding male tigers," Disney said in a press release.

The film is directed by Mark Linfield, with Vanessa Berlowitz and Rob Sullivan serving as co-director. It is produced by Linfield, Berlowitz and Roy Conli. "It's just wonderful to be able to be a part of something so special and to tell the story of this magnificent animal that comes from my country-I was very honoured. I have always loved tigers and I feel a kinship with the female tiger-I feel very protective of my family. Ambar's journey is something I think every mom would really relate to," Chopra Jonas said in a statement. On the occasion of Earth Day, "Tigers On The Rise", a companion film to "Tiger", will also start streaming on Disney+ Hotstar.
