On the same night as his separation from his brother, unbeknownst to Saroo, Guddu was hit and killed by an oncoming train. Saroo did not know it at the time, but he was nearly 1,500 kilometres (930 mi) from his hometown. Saroo’s rail journey eventually ended at the huge Howrah railway station in Calcutta (now known as Kolkata), and he fled when someone opened the door to his carriage.
Occasionally the train stopped at small stations, but Saroo was unable to open the door to escape. When he awoke, the train was travelling across an unfamiliar area. Hoping his brother would come for him, he fell asleep. He found there were no doors to the adjoining carriages. He noticed a train parked in the station and, thinking his brother was on it, boarded an empty carriage. Guddu did not return, and Saroo eventually became impatient. Guddu told his little brother to wait and promised to be back shortly. By the time the train reached Burhanpur, Saroo was so tired he collapsed onto a seat on the platform.
Saroo asked his older brother if he could go, too. One evening, Guddu said he was going to ride the train from Khandwa to the city of Burhanpur, 70 kilometres (43 mi) to the south. Guddu sometimes obtained work sweeping the floors of train carriages. At age five, Saroo and his older brothers, Guddu and Kallu, began begging at the railway station for food and money. His mother worked in construction to support herself and her children but often did not make enough money to feed them all, and could not afford to send them to school. When he was young, his father left his mother, throwing the family into poverty. Saroo Brierley was born Sheru Munshi Khan in Ganesh Talai, a suburb within Khandwa, Madhya Pradesh.
