nov 30, 1986 - Adoption
Description:
After staying at Nava Jeevan for about 4 weeks, Saroo is called into an office by Mrs Sood. The orphanage has located an Australian family willing to adopt Saroo. He receives a photo album dedicated to him, telling him about the life ahead of him. There are a few other children at the orphanage who go through the same, such as a girl named Asra.
The soon-to-be adopted kids are driven to the house of a woman called "Aunty Ula", having only a few days to get a hold of table manners and the most basic English phrases. Saroo then boards a jet plane bound for Melbourne, Australia.
