Last January, Amazon had announced Citadel, a multi-series franchise with local productions being simultaneously made in Italy, India and Mexico. Chopra Jonas and Game of Thrones star Richard Madden are headlining the American version. Danish actor Roland Moller, known for films such as Skyscraper and Papillon, is also part of the show.
Described as an action-packed spy series with a compelling emotional centre, Citadel will be executive produced by Russo Brothers along with former ABC Studios president Patrick Moran and Mike Larocca. Chopra Jonas, 38, has also wrapped shooting of rom-com feature film 'Text For You'.

The White Tiger
Earlier, Priyanka Chopra had taken to Instagram and shared a series of the picture while describing her choice of giving a nod for the film. The pictured were some of the BTS stills of the actress with the director Ramin Bahrani who was seen guiding her with shots. She wrote, “I approach every role with one question - how does this character impact the story? In The White Tiger, Pinky is the catalyst of change for Balram...she lights the fire that ultimately leads him down a different path than the one he is on.. but is that path the right one? Ok ok, no spoilers, but if you HAVE watched the movie...comment below and tell me what you thought!!” (sic). Then also her father-in-law Kevin was the first one to comment under the post and praise her character as Pinky. He wrote, “Amazing performance. Your portrayal of Pinky was heartbreaking and inspiring. Love you”.
