I know this movie touched a lot of people. A lot of you felt the emotional connection between him and his brother and mother. 90% of the cinema I was in left in tears, including myself. But it was more than just the story for me. I felt such an amazing connection to the young adult Saroo, because his acting was everything I've ever felt. I'm an adopted child who still hasn't met his mother and brother, and I'm around his age. I can honestly say I've never cried this much in my entire life. The feelings he portrayed, the pain he went through, the haunting thoughts, the feeling that constantly reminds you that you can't forget - yet you still make yourself think about it less... But sometimes, you can't help it. In those cases, you don't sleep, you don't function as others expect you to. You feel distant, closed inside your own head, with no way out. Then it sets in. The fear of the unknown. Not knowing what you'll find when you do return. The one line in the movie which struck me the most is one said by his adoptive mother. After he admitted to his mother that he had been trying to find his village, her words absolutely broke me. She said: "Oh Saroo. I really hope she's still there. She needs to see what a beautiful young man you've become." Absolutely gut wrenching. Amazing movie, amazing cast, and an even more incredible story.
I am adopted as well and I cried throughout the entire movie. I feel like I can hardly even review it because my eyes were watering the whole time. And at the end I sobbed uncontrollably when everyone else was leaving the theatre. You definitely weren't the only one who felt such a personal connection with this story. I hope that someday you find your biological family as Saroo did.
James Houghton-Brown it is the soundtrack. The "score/soundtrack"-differentiation only comes into play when there are two albums available, one with songs and one with the original instrumental music
I thought I was the only one crying throughout the movie. I am in absolute awe with this film's direction, cinematography, acting, score and everything that I forgot.
This is the type of movie that can make you cry, but above all, can teach you about life. Watching the movie I could remember my home, my city, my friends, my street, my family. And the little Sunny Pawar, the kid that plays young Saroo, is an amazing actor. He was amazing during entire movie.
I was a foster mum to 13 different little ones ages 0-3. They were all adopted, or returned to unsafe homes, and I miss them everyday. I cried very hard during the whole film. To all those who are adopted please know that you are loved.
Non mi vergogno di dire quante sono state le lacrime che mi sono scivolate giù, durante la programmazione; film e colonna sonora di rara bellezza e di grande coinvolgimento emotivo!
One of the most powerful movies i have ever seen.***** . A big standing ovation to Sunny Pawar....Never knew i could cry in a movie. Dev Patel is excellent as well but the kid just stole my heart.
Anche io provengo dall'India ..vedere questo film è stato sensazionale. .l'ho sentito mio ! Nn istante la mia storia sia stata molto diversa ..ho pianto tanto 💕
This movie had an impact on my whole life and my thinking.I feel like I want to change something about this world. I have a good heart and will use it to help people. Honestly this soundtrack speaks to my soul it's incredible.
Just went to see Lion, it's the first time in my life where I am positive someone was cutting onions inside the theater, really strange. And they kept cutting more of them periodically throughout the movie...
Alex same feeling. on the verge of tears for most of the movie, something that rarely ever happens to me. i think more people should see this movie. havent seen any reviews from chris stuckmann or jeremy jahns
I don't rememver the last time I admired a movie in its entirety as I did with Lion. literally perfect; from script to performance to music...you don't cry because it's a sad moving story but because you somehow know how they feel ..just perfect.
Saw the movie today, cried my head off. Amazing story, we should all be happy that we got to live in a good place. We should all be thankful for what we've got, even if we don't have things that other people have. I learned that having a phone or a big house is not important, having a family is the most important thing. If you read this comment, than remember that you are loved and remember that you have people who care even if you are not there.
After watching this movie, my 15 year old son came home and learned it by ear, it still moves me to tears. Truly beautiful piece and and magnificent movie.
This piece is a great example how an excellent soundtrack enhance the movie and moves it to an upper tier, also making it memorable. When I listen to this piece, I remember the whole plot in a blink.
Oh boy, what a powerful soundtrack!!! Emotions are written on all over my face while listening to this. And this didn't win an Oscar. neither the movie. so sad.
I took the daughter (12 years-old) of a friend of mine to see this great film with me. I told her it's the amazing story of a boy in search of his family and roots but not a story for children because it's so sad. Yes, it's so sad but full of hope for humanity. Greetings from Switzerland
what absolutely beautiful comments below - each and every one of you .... touching , powerful , just like the film - and the score , well that's just sublime...
I think one of the best films of the year. Everything about it was spectacular; photography, story, acting, music. It was stunning. Tore your heart out.
Probably the most moving and emotional movie i've ever seen. I thought it really deserved an Oscar. La La Land was fun and all but this movie and soundtrack was at a totally different level.
Un film absolument extraordinaire, avec une bande son hors du commun. Je me suis régalé en le regardant. Très touchant et nous montrant enfin une réalité tant éloignée de nous, dans notre confort dont on a tendance à se plaindre.....et pourquoi? Parce-qu'on n'a pas connu cette réalité visionnée dans ce film, tout simplement. Une remise en question à prévoir peut-être.
This is how we seek God...Our lost home, our lost paradise... This movie, this story is amazing. I would listen to this soundtrack for hours. Masterpiece.
Yeah I agree with others, the film was beautiful. The ache for home, for his mum and brother was palpable, played fantastically by Dev Pattel. He's got my respect! And even Nicole Kidman did a good job I thought. For some reason her performance was also palpable; I got a sense of what she smelled like. Weird, ay? Yeah. Weird! Great film, 5 stars, and the music has brought me here so it's clearly fantastic too!
This movie had me tearing up right until the end, then I couldn't hold it in any longer. I haven't cried that hard in years, let alone over a movie. Absolute masterpiece.
The movie was the reality of live in India dont Forget it. The casting is perfect i hope that open the eyes and the heart of our world that we all are childeren of God.
whenever this track came on, id get really emotional. And when it played near the end of the film, just like at the beginning, all the memories could be easily put back into my mind. Tracks like these are really powerful and important when it comes to telling a story.
Warm greetings from Poland. I read the book, I want to see the movie, listen to this music and I can not comprehend the whole story, how it is moving up to tears
This piece gives me such intense nostalgic feelings: Memories of sitting in the movie theater with family members, that familiar aroma of buttered popcorn filling the air, the usual bag of M&Ms and medium sized fruit punch in my hands, that awesome stretch you get when you stand up with the credits rolling and another piano piece playing. Movie theaters hold some of my best life memories, and one of my greatest fears is that they will one day become obsolete.
simply beautiful...i have a little toddler and cant begin to imagine what I would do if i lost her and more so, what she would be going through all alone so young. its heartbreaking to know this happened...the music in this really lifts every tiny hair on your body, heart renching but equally as beautiful .
A film korszakalkotó. A zene zseniális. Kötelezővé tenném az iskolákban hamár egymás kulturáját erőltetik. Ez a film minden, amit ember megélhet. Tökéletes. Köszönöm.
Maravillosa película, cada vez que Sunny Pawar decía "Guddu" lloraba. Tiene que ganar si o si. Es una película que simplemente te saca tu lado más humano posible.
I couldn't stop crying. The movie and music touched my soul so immense deep........Stopped breathing when Sharoo was united with his mam. Thank you so much! It was wonderful.
Je comprends que du moment où son frère meurt (à la gare) le petit Saroo est guidé comme si son frère était à ses cotés et qu'il l'incitait à s'enfuir par exemple quand il se retrouve en situation dangereuse. Plus tard encore Saroo est continuellement attiré, poussé à retourner vers sa mère qui a perdu ses deux fils la même journée finalement. Un film sur l'appel de l'âme.....Magnifique!
I'm just a little late to the party with this one having only watched the film for the first time a week or so ago but wow! What a powerful film and incredible soundtrack 👌🏻
Um fantástico filme, com uma grande banda somora e otimo piano... Do melhor que se pode ver e sentir! Parabéns e coragem a todos os que se reveem neste filme...

Luka Brščić Thank you for sharing your story. May God bless you and your family 🙏
I hope you find your family. God is with you. Kisses from Spain 😙

And at the end I sobbed uncontrollably when everyone else was leaving the theatre. You definitely weren't the only one who felt such a personal connection with this story. I hope that someday you find your biological family as Saroo did.
Luka Brščić i know how feel about how this is more than just a film to you
@Luka, wishing you will find her one day or meet her in your deepest dreams to satisfy the part you missed. Good luck and life to you.
This soundtrack deserves an Oscar !!!!!
its a score not a soundtrack, and it won't win, La Land will (not saying it should win)
James Houghton-Brown it is the soundtrack. The "score/soundtrack"-differentiation only comes into play when there are two albums available, one with songs and one with the original instrumental music
and even then you can call the score soundtrack
This score is wonderful, but Hurwitz work was something else.
True!!!!
I saw the film with my mother. She adopted me. I was just crying ... I'm so proud of my parents!!!
Here's hoping you find what your looking for. Godspeed
Amazing.
Laser _ It's a gift that I feel so good now .. Thanks to my parents for everything..
Memsy 92 🥺❤️
i've played this 42 times today and cry every time
Sophie Pop glad I'm not the only one.
hhh me too
Lucky you. Lucky all of us who can find and also live is this different world!
Sophie...At Least you have feelings of empathy...👍👍🧡💜💛
beautiful song to play on piano I would also cry
GUDUUUUUUUUU😭😭😭😭
Shab Bhat 😭😭😭
IKKKKKK
Daniel Sheru*
Naiee!
Shab Bhat i cried out loud when they tell him guddu already rest in peace.... i wish i had a brother like guddu. God bless him 🙏🏼
This is the most beautiful movie I've seen in my entire life
I cried from the first minute to the last one in this movie. I loved it so much!
I thought I was the only one crying throughout the movie. I am in absolute awe with this film's direction, cinematography, acting, score and everything that I forgot.
sara luzuriaga o thank god i am not the only one 😭❤
It was a phenomenal movie
Same here!
me too :'(
I'm a retired Marine, and it made me teary eyed.
This is the type of movie that can make you cry, but above all, can teach you about life. Watching the movie I could remember my home, my city, my friends, my street, my family. And the little Sunny Pawar, the kid that plays young Saroo, is an amazing actor. He was amazing during entire movie.
Beautifully said. I felt the same watching it. Powerful and transcendental.
That young actor deserves recognition as well. He's brilliant.
I was a foster mum to 13 different little ones ages 0-3. They were all adopted, or returned to unsafe homes, and I miss them everyday. I cried very hard during the whole film. To all those who are adopted please know that you are loved.
iraqidolphin1 Thank God for caring people like you.
Thank you very much. Everyone should help out a child in need. Be a big brother or/Big Sister, volunteer, or donate to a child welfare organization.
Non mi vergogno di dire quante sono state le lacrime che mi sono scivolate giù, durante la programmazione; film e colonna sonora di rara bellezza e di grande coinvolgimento emotivo!
Si, veramente😢
Non mi vergogno neanche io. Visto 2-3 volte, ho pianto sempre. C’è stato un periodo nel quale ascoltavo ogni sera queste melodie e piangevo
One of the most powerful movies i have ever seen.***** . A big standing ovation to Sunny Pawar....Never knew i could cry in a movie. Dev Patel is excellent as well but the kid just stole my heart.
Anche io provengo dall'India ..vedere questo film è stato sensazionale. .l'ho sentito mio ! Nn istante la mia storia sia stata molto diversa ..ho pianto tanto 💕

M
Yes, its true!😢
We all should be proud of living in a world with the internet,internet is such a great invention if used properly.
I've never cried so hard to a movie in my entire life :')
Just went to see Lion, it's the first time in my life where I am positive someone was cutting onions inside the theater, really strange. And they kept cutting more of them periodically throughout the movie...
Sorry, won't do it again
Alex same feeling. on the verge of tears for most of the movie, something that rarely ever happens to me. i think more people should see this movie. havent seen any reviews from chris stuckmann or jeremy jahns
Alex the ending got to me the most
spoilers***
especially when he's walking on the train tracks and sees his younger self playing with Guddu T_T
It makes me cry every time ... gorgeous film , it's hard to believe it happened to this child .
I don't rememver the last time I admired a movie in its entirety as I did with Lion. literally perfect; from script to performance to music...you don't cry because it's a sad moving story but because you somehow know how they feel ..just perfect.
truest words
Saw the movie today, cried my head off. Amazing story, we should all be happy that we got to live in a good place. We should all be thankful for what we've got, even if we don't have things that other people have. I learned that having a phone or a big house is not important, having a family is the most important thing.
If you read this comment, than remember that you are loved and remember that you have people who care even if you are not there.
So much love from Saudi Arabia ❤️❤️
After watching this movie, my 15 year old son came home and learned it by ear, it still moves me to tears. Truly beautiful piece and and magnificent movie.
This movie moved me tears so many times.....such a powerful and heart wrenching movie and the music was very appropriate. Amazing story.
This movie is a masterpiece
This piece is a great example how an excellent soundtrack enhance the movie and moves it to an upper tier, also making it memorable. When I listen to this piece, I remember the whole plot in a blink.

lilinparis1 ben en au go luege und er isch super gsi😍😍
THX 4 this movie & songs -
I love the scene where little Saroo meets his adoptive parents. The music perfectly conveys the tender beauty of his purity and innocence.
what absolutely beautiful comments below - each and every one of you .... touching , powerful , just like the film - and the score , well that's just sublime...
I bawled my eyes out every time this played in the movie, I couldn't keep my emotions in check, it was just so beautifully executed.
I think one of the best films of the year. Everything about it was spectacular; photography, story, acting, music. It was stunning. Tore your heart out.
ureshiiiiii same here exactly. great movie . touch my heart and mind!
ureshiiiiii That moment when he finds his mother is so beautiful. You can think in how important is your mom for life.
Crikey, at the end I had to pinch myself super hard, concentrate on the women in front's hair, just to stop crying like a baby.
Same! I've seen it a total of five times and I cry every single time
Probably the most moving and emotional movie i've ever seen. I thought it really deserved an Oscar. La La Land was fun and all but this movie and soundtrack was at a totally different level.
Julia Guillet ахь нийсам бох
so so beautiful. I can't get enough of this music.
This film is so beautiful. I’m crying. I love this music so much. Thank you❤️

This is how we seek God...Our lost home, our lost paradise... This movie, this story is amazing. I would listen to this soundtrack for hours. Masterpiece.
Oh , what a movie . This soundtrack has emotions written all over it .
fourth time watching the movie. i'm absolutely in love with the soundtrack, and the story it tells.

Great film, 5 stars, and the music has brought me here so it's clearly fantastic too!
I had to pause the movie so i could look for this. Great now i can continue with my movie
think I must have played this a thousand times in the past two weeks. it is brilliant
This movie had me tearing up right until the end, then I couldn't hold it in any longer. I haven't cried that hard in years, let alone over a movie. Absolute masterpiece.
The movie was the reality of live in India dont Forget it. The casting is perfect i hope that open the eyes and the heart of our world that we all are childeren of God.

I loved this movie so much, I ordered the book right after.
Stunning! The film and the music should have won all the Oscars going. So powerful.
Is beautiful music and Film.
Un des plus beaux films que j'ai vu.
Breathtaking

This music gives both pain and hope...it gives me the pain of what I had lost and give me the hope of me finding my home....

In a world where everything seems to be connected, but our souls become more and more isolated ... This film make me feel human again...Thanks

Listening to Lion's soundtrack is enough to make me cry a lot ! Amazing movie !!! My fav movie of all time .
Amazing film
Saw it 2x now. Incredible story! A real connection for me as an adopted child.
the little boy Saroo was amazing natural actor
his eyes have all the meaning
I loved him more than the adult one
Auch nach sechs Jahren ein Film und dessen Musik unter die Haut geht …..❤

Just finished watching it with my mum on mother's day. What amazing mothers he had. Absolute true love.
Está hermosa melodía me conmueve y se me salen las lágrimas ❤
Je suis un homme mennen doux et dur à la fois ce film et cette musique me font couler des larmes 😊
tu as toute a fait raison
Christelle Fitia merci 😊
Film touchant et musique qui me donne des frissons j'aime trop 😢😢😢💚💛💜❤💙💋💋💋💋
Maravillosa película, cada vez que Sunny Pawar decía "Guddu" lloraba. Tiene que ganar si o si. Es una película que simplemente te saca tu lado más humano posible.
Mir ging es genau so
This Music will always bring tears in my eyes!! Addicted to this emotional ART!!
wonderful movie with exceptionnal people. nobody could keep his emotion.perfect execution.
I couldn't stop crying. The movie and music touched my soul so immense deep........Stopped breathing when Sharoo was united with his mam. Thank you so much! It was wonderful.
Je comprends que du moment où son frère meurt (à la gare) le petit Saroo est guidé comme si son frère était à ses cotés et qu'il l'incitait à s'enfuir par exemple quand il se retrouve en situation dangereuse.

ah oui dis donc j avais pas pensé à ça !
Guddu veillant sur son frère...
mysteri misteria oui car il devais aller travailler sauf qu'en y allant il s'est fait percuté par un train
Vraiment magnifique ta théorie, j’en toute émue 😥
One of the most beautiful movies ever made. Incredibly touching story!
This music goes so deep !
I'm just a little late to the party with this one having only watched the film for the first time a week or so ago but wow! What a powerful film and incredible soundtrack 👌🏻
Un grand film, plein d'émotion, superbe musique. Un grand moment!!
La banda sonora es muy importante para una película.. y está se merece un Oscar!!
I cried so much watching this film, even talking about it after made me cry. It touched me more than any other film has.
Amazing job !
I dont understand how Lion lost to Moonlight. I thought La La Land was the best film of 2016, but then I saw Lion.
instablaster...
❤
This movie (especially the little Sunny Pawar as Saroo) transported me. I never cried so much. Thank you Mr Davis for filming this amazing story.
This music reaches across time. Breathtaking. Thank you.
love very much this deep music that takes you up
Um fantástico filme, com uma grande banda somora e otimo piano... Do melhor que se pode ver e sentir!
Parabéns e coragem a todos os que se reveem neste filme...
one of the best movie this year
