Actor Priyanka Chopra Jonas will serve as the narrator of the upcoming documentary 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 a statement, Priyanka expressed that it's been an incredible privilege to be a part of something truly remarkable and to share the tale of this remarkable animal that originates from her homeland—she felt incredibly honoured. For as long as she can remember, tigers have held a special place in her heart. Just like a mother tiger, the actor is fiercely protective of the people she loves. Priyanka believes every mother may relate to Ambar's story.

The documentary 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.
