Anil
Kapoor's
son
Harsh
Varrdhan
Kapoor
who
made
his
Bollywood
debut
with
Mirzya
opposite
Saiyami
Kher,
revealed
that
he
had
lost
Rajkummar
Rao's
role
in
The
White
Tiger
because
of
Priyanka
Chopra.

Harsh
Varrdhan
told
a
leading
daily,
"The
White
Tiger,
I
auditioned
for
Rajkummar
Rao's
role.
I
almost
got
it,
as
well.
They
really
liked
me
for
it.
But
Priyanka
(Chopra)
came
on
board,
they
wanted
a
slightly
older
actor,
I
looked
very
young.
I
am
a
lot
younger,
and
Raj
is
such
a
phenomenal
actor,
but
that
was
kind
of
a
close
call."
In
the
same
interview,
Harsh
Varrdhan
admitted
that
he
would
love
to
be
a
part
of
Hollywood
films,
and
he
is
already
keeping
one
eye
on
the
West.
"Might
happen,
fingers
crossed.
I've
always
had
one
eye
on
the
West.
I
think
my
way
of
working,
what
I've
been
exposed
to...
I
don't
think
I
would
be
out
of
place.
But
obviously,
it's
beyond
my
control.
If
something
happens,
I
promise
I'll
work
very
hard
and
seize
the
opportunity...
It's
a
door
that
I
definitely
want
to
open
up
for
myself," added
Kapoor.
With
respect
to
work,
Harsh
Varrdhan
was
last
seen
in
Netflix's
anthology
series
Ray.
He
will
next
be
seen
in
a
biopic
of
shooter
Abhinav
Bindra,
in
which
he
will
star
alongside
his
father
Anil
Kapoor.
