Indian actress Priyanka Chopra, who is currently in the national capital to film "The White Tiger", says it is hard to shoot here because of pollution.

Priyanka on Sunday night took to Instagram, where she shared a photograph of herself with a mask.

She captioned the image: "Shoot days for #thewhitetiger. It's so hard to shoot here right now that I can't even imagine what it must be like to live here under these conditions. We are blessed with air purifiers and masks.

"Pray for the homeless. Be safe everyone. #airpollution #delhipollution #weneedsolutions #righttobreathe."

"The White Tiger", adapted from Aravind Adiga's prize-winning novel of the same name, will be helmed by Ramin Bahrani. It follows the extraordinary journey of a self-made man from being a tea-shop worker in a village to a successful entrepreneur in a big city.

Netflix is producing "The White Tiger" in association with Mukul Deora. It also stars Rajkummar Rao.
