Saroo continues to wander around the city before coming across Noor, a seemingly friendly woman

who brings him back to her apartment. She tells Saroo that a man, Rama, will help him find his way
home. Saroo, sensing that Noor and Rama have sinister intentions, runs away and escapes Noor
when she pursues him. A young man eventually takes Saroo to the police. Unable to trace his family,
they put him in an orphanage. Three months later, Saroo is introduced to Mrs. Sood, who tells him
she has placed an advertisement about him in several local newspapers, but no one has responded.
She then tells him that an Australian couple is interested in adopting him. She begins to teach Saroo
English and he moves to Hobart, Tasmania in 1987, under the care of Sue and John Brierley, where
he slowly starts to settle in. A year later, they adopt another boy, Mantosh, who has trouble adjusting
to his new home and suffers from rage and self-harm.
