On October 16, mid-day was the first to report that Adarsh Gourav had bagged the lead role in an international project (Bigger goals, bigger size, Oct 16). Yesterday, Bollywood woke up to the delightful news that the actor — who became the international toast after his riveting performance in The White Tiger earlier this year — has earned a place alongside Meryl Streep, Kit Harington and Sienna Miller for Scott Z Burns’s anthology, Extrapolations. The Apple TV+ climate anthology will explore how changes to the planet will impact survival, love and family.
