Stars can be treated as a self-gravitating fluid. In this connection, we propose a model for an anisotropic star under the relativistic framework of Krori and Barua (J. Phys. A, Math. Gen. 8:508, 1975) spacetime. It is shown that the solutions are regular and singularity free. The uniqueness of the model is that interior physical properties of the star solely depend on the central density of the matter distribution.
