This research article examines the thematic interaction of faith, survival, and the human spirit in Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger. The novel explores the stark realities of class, corruption, and social mobility via the experiences of its protagonist, Balram Halwai, within the context of a swiftly modernizing India. As Balram faces the systemic inequalities of the Indian social hierarchy, his internal conflict embodies a wider dialogue on existential belief and perseverance. The study analyses Adiga's depiction of faith, not as conventional religious belief, but as a catalyst for human survival and aspiration. Furthermore, it examines the structural and thematic components that influence Balram's quest for independence and identity within a profoundly fragmented society. This study elucidates The White Tiger as a significant critique of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of contemporary socio-political adversities in India through a comprehensive examination of its core topics.
