- Learning how to survive on an increasingly crowded planet is probably our ultimate challenge. But there’s one place, home to over a sixth of the world’s population, which is already making a good shot at adapting: welcome to India. This extraordinary observational series casts aside the usual preconceptions about the sub-continent, and lets a few of India’s 1.2 billion show how their world really works.

The poverty, the hustling, the everyday struggles, the loan shark, the unfair gold boss, the unfair guy with the gold smelter and then you see their smiles, hear their laughter see them in their fun days just playing cricket and their lives just go on living on hope and faith that one day I'll make it big and get out of here...I wish all them them the very best that life can offer them👏👏👏🙏
Right! Feel the positivity in their faces, that I wish I have.
It is very stressful and survival rate is lesser than most countries.
Get out of here and go where? Ultimately, no one can escape death: not even the comfortable life living people in developed countries (and they know they too are miserable despite comforts and facilities). What happens after death? Ever thought about it?
They are pretending that they are happy. Their smiles are just for the camera.
I wish them the best as long as they stay in their own country
Rajesh and his wife's sense of humour is spot on 😅😅beach apartment with A/C
Feel bad for Rajesh, his parents due to their outdated thinking lost such a hardworking son. But his hustle goes on!
They love each other.
A/C killed me lol. They so super cool. Im so grateful with what i have shoooo
And a bar.
yes thats whats needed to survive here. india if filled with poor people but full hearts.
I am an auto mechanic in Huntsville Alabama USA. I have met many young Indian students getting their college education here. I fix their cheap cars, just to last them through school & we've become friends.. The Indian's are among the brightest, most clever & industrious i have ever met. They make ways to overcome obstacles that i could never think of. I'm retiring from cars now but these Indian students have been a delight.
our circumstances made us like that here in India we suffered more because of invaders they looted everything search about nalanda university they burn our knowledge too but here in India we are fighting and developing soon we will be in worlds best country list
Thank you, Shane, for your kind spirit and helping heart!
We take for granted just how blessed we are in western countries. God bless those hard working impoverished Indian people.
For ur information only rich people from India can afford education in foreign countries 😂😂.
I am from India .It doesn't look as it's shown .
Awesome
i also live in India but......I didn't know people's lives in India were like this .....I have never seen so much poverty.....after seeing this i am grateful for life i am living
thats what western media always shows about india. even we indians dont obsessed about slums that much.
@@justrandomthinker True. They always find some shit and shows India as that only. Not more than 5% people living in slum in India but according to western media those 5% is entire India.
@@rudraprashad and irony is that giving title as "the real india"
@@harshanand8608 Ya. The people like us who are living in clean environment with modern amenities are fake as per the maker of documentary. I never understood the world who always downgrade India as showing dirty and filthy by visiting slums rather appreciating for its progress and showing good clean area. My recent trip to Chicago, i was fortunate enough to meet an European man who is working in US. He visited Gurgaon and Bangalore and by knowing me as Indian told me that these western people though tell lot of bad things about India but i have seen rising India which almost 99% of the world are not aware of due to such documentary. Infact he told me that he was surprised to see Gurgaon when he visited in 2022 and praised a lot about Indian IT field rising.
Bro what we see in real life is reality. This documentary is 20 years old. It's not like this anywhere in the country. India is doing pretty well.
The story of the young gold digger who broke away from his tyranic boss & landlord to become his own boss, formed his own clan & found a roof over their head deserves a movie. He is so smart & knew he could do better than his boss, treat his own worker better for much better return on investment, find a better buyer, hire a taxi to get there quick. I bet he will rise to the top some day. However, the people surviving on the beach selling alcohol, I feel sorry for them because a solid roof over your head is the first step in the human hierarchy of need without a roof, there's no safety ^ you can't function properly plus selling alcohol which only brings more human misery, is a bad combination.
Everybody Ho is willing to dive in shit. Deserves all his Dreams come true.❤🎉
However, such totally broken structures also produce very clever minds whose cleverness is challenged. In well-ordered societies, such instincts can no longer develop and this often creates a drug problem from which wealthy countries increasingly suffer. Nevertheless, India has collapsed, the fact that everyone is fed is a miracle, nonetheless.

Not another American in dirty Kolkata. Everyone wants to make documentary on Kolkata which technically shouldn't even be classified as a city, its the poorest place in India.
yeah....i mean..those 1200+ drug addicted tent slums of america and dirty smelling corners of europe....
@@NavyaSagittarius So we should gatekeep people's access to educational information just because they're white? Sounds racist. Don't you think it'd be better for them to educate themselves about life in other countries rather than remaining completely oblivious to it?
The fact that Kolkata is one of the poorest cities in the world is the reason it's interesting and important to document, and both Indian and English-speaking filmmakers have made documentaries about it. There just probably aren't as many Indian filmmakers compared to English-speaking ones since the equipment is so expensive, and besides, Indian filmmakers are likely releasing their films in their own country/language anyway.

Beautiful video. Uncut and real India exposed. So proud of these struggling people who also have a dream. Binded we stand divided we fall. Unless we understand deeply this crisis and support the low lying people no matter how greater next PM comes to power ( even 10 times the existing Modi) nothing will change. Sad that's the real truth about India. Sorry for those who feel patriotic only and consider high profile image to protect of self and the nation as priority.
@samueljacopastoria this documentary are mean to satisfy your 1st world country ego,not to show you the overall life of india people,poor you
That just 5 percent of Indian life maybe and ita almost 20 year old documentary
FYI this documentary is at least 15+ years old. Things don't look like this anywhere in India. This is just a part of propaganda re-uploading it again and again.
One of the best India docos I've seen. Realistic, real people, good insight
into daily life in this area and good quality camera work. Top doco :)

Cheers and thanks to the mighty Chris Hitchens.
Its an 20 years old documentary 😂😂
this is a decade old filmed documentary, before the current government , before india overtook england in gdp, before the digitalization, before the startup boom.
You can easily tell this by looking at the 100 rupee and 10 rupee notes they showed in the intro😂, they dont print those anymore, wtf...
@@wdvhi I would be fascinated to see this done again with a follow up. I've seen this one before. I just remembered.
Cobra gypsy is my favourite documentary
It's incredible that these people can survive even though their living conditions are worse than what cockroaches face in Western Europe. The gold digger was so happy with an "apartment" that looked like a sinkhole. Amazing how resilient they are. And it 100% makes you think twice about when you complain for minor inconveniences in life.
I have so much respect for the India people. It is so messed up over there. But the people are so kind and beautiful.
Breaks my heart to see these poor homeless people working so hard. They have loan sharks there too!
😮 They are happier than many westerners who have everything.
There were loan sharks in Rome, Greece and Babylon. Now they rule the world.
Also the interest is crazy hard to get out of that trap
Indian people are born entrepreneurs and have a humble spirit.
No
humble? LOL no
Préjudice. Entrepreneurs get rich usually, but they are not. I would prefer to work at a state agency in the west for a decent, safe income and living.
@@HansGrob There are many reasons for that, but things are getting better, this video is 15 years old. India was the wealthiest place on the planet for most of human history. A lot has been lost in the last several centuries, but much will be revived in the coming decades.
@@rvind000 If you assert 'wealthiest', then prove it by listing the status of all other regions, geographically and historically. It seems you have never been abroad, too much self-overconfidence. 'Wealth' means: basic necessities for everyone and more is guaranteed, even during times of crisis and old age and loss of other family members. Including family homes with own garden, the swimming pool should better be provided by the village/community. In principle, general wealth is not possible without industrialisation. In today's world, an average income of 10'000 $ p.a. is needed for basic wealth (Thailand) and 50'000 $ for full wealth (Sweden). There is no guarantee of reaching them.

These guys go search for the one odd exception out of a billion people who live like this just to make these shows a blockbuster as you can see by the views. I have lived all my life in India and haven't seen a single person getting into a gutter. And when offered money to film their "life" they will make sure to do the most challenging of dares that they never do on a normal day.

@wdvhi if you're done with your bullshit please name some NEW things which current govt achieved . Is it IIM/IIT ? DRDO ? AIIMS ? AIrports ? FDA ? . you give it enough time even dirt changes to diamond but the person to find it claims glory of it but doesn't declare the story behind success.
Bro consider this guys has outlier , and British Broad casters and documentary makers always make documentaries at the most poor locations . that is a common propoganda mechanism of various nations .Dw TV does that with USA . USA does it with India ,and India laughs at some vices of the USA . dont take them seirouly , vast majoirty of people dont leave in such poverty . just they manage to get through , not rich . not poor . USA commonlty and West views India has third world country . but that is not only insulting . but plain stupid .and shows how dumb and self centred and unaware most of americans are about the world outside USA . they are least aware of current world affairs and geopolitcs .
Whatever the condition is when people are around there is comfort. That's why people like to stay in densely populated areas -India is one of them.
Brilliant Doco one of the best Ive seen on India and its people. 6 boys delighted to live in a room as big as my bathroom is humbling.
Ya it looks pretty brutal honestly. Especially those unsanitary filthy conditions they have to live in. But I commend their strength and courage to want to live through every day doing what they can to survive. I wish they had better opportunities, living conditions etc.
When are we seeing documentaries on US ghettos and slums? Just pan around your backyard
This is truly a work of art. A once-in-a-while expository documentary worthy of emulation. The synergy of art direction, camera work and overall production highlight the subject matter very poignantly. Kudos @Documentary Central in deep appreciation.
Dudes were handling mercury with bare hands, lmao...
Desperation, not ignorance. They cannot afford safety gear but must survive despite the hazards. They will probably not live to see a 45th birthday. I don’t laugh my ass off about their situation. I thank God I am not in their shoes.
You should see the ones who literally go down into the sewers to pan for gold!!! The gold workers inevitably inhale some of the gold dust too so it comes out in their poop…. That combined, with just the stuff that makes it’s way down there from the streets above (like where these guys are panning). I saw that documentary a few years ago and I was absolutely HORRIFIED!!! So, after wading and diving down (head and all!) into a shitty sewer, mercury would be the least of their worries! But yes, it is indeed, extremely dangerous.
@@christinafidance340 idk about gold toxicity and lethality but i'm pretty sure mercury poisoning has no treatment if it reaches the brain, 100% lethal.
I had to scroll way too far to find someone mentioning this
I used to work in a dental practice in the 1970's & would regularly handle mercury. We'd put the mixed amalgam & mercury in a chamois (for fillings) & squeeze out the excess mercury to be reused. It would turn our rings dull. I'm still here 😅😅😅 Best wishes from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
So precious that a love survives.A father throws away his familyand does not experience the joy of watching a grandchild going off to school. The family struggles but are happy. omnamasivaya.

As an indian my views are also same and it is truth
Depends on which city. This may be true in Delhi but in Mumbai people trust each other. Proof? An international org ran a test by dropping wallets with money to see how many are returned in all major cities in the world. Mumbai ranked #2 in honesty in the world. This happens every time they run the test.
I have been to India many times during the period of time 1980-1995 and travelled using trains to many places from north to south of the country. Nothing from that time seem to have changed for the less fortunate.
It is a documentary from that time itself.
India will never progress, it will regress
Lot changed
@@Attitudezero884Yes changed population wise.
alot has changed. but a LONG way to go still.
The peoples shown in this documentary are all heroes. They have an exemplary fighting spirit and have the mental power to keep a smile amidst so many excruciating difficult circumstances. I pray that they succeed in lifting themselves out of poverty. Shame on the Indian elites who either ignore or exploit them. Shame on the so called biggest democracy in the world who can't even give the basic necessities to its own people.
Shame on the western colonisers who looted and maimed our country reducing it to the rubble they portray here ( which is now reduced and occasional ).
What they don’t still know is that we are reclaiming our position back and reduced the percent of selective stuff you see in this documentary to only 6% from over 30.
Why don’t they make that documentary ?
What about the crop grower who gave ‘advice’ to the man living on beach. Told him, the man’s losses are his profit and they he’s okay with other people suffering as long as he profits.

Interestingly the state they are showing is a "Socialist/Communist" state, the more capitalistic states are doing a much better job at uplifting people from poverty.
As an Indian migrant through marriage I have always fallen foul of anyone who praises India. Modi and his BJP Hindu ideology which is spreading to the UK and other parts of the Western countries must address the root cause of poverty being the Cursed Caste System. The caste system is legitimised and given a seal of approval by all Religious leaders. Our PM Rishi Sunak flaunts his faith and is a Poster Boy for the Hindus.
A very resiliant, hard working and adaptable people. So much emphasis on family and loyalty to friends. Cheers.
And zero loyalty to the white countries they invade. They come here solely to take what they can from what my white ancestors have built.
Families in India feel entitled to be financially supported by one member of the family who is successful. Parents also pressure the successful member to fulfil their obligations to the point of gaslighting. My comment is from my first hand experience.
@@agnescraig2912 i could see where that would cause a person to feel taken advantage of especially if parents are demanding one member sacrifice more than others. Thank you for bringing this to attention.
I feel for people who have to work so hard just to have a little, when some do nothing and have so much. My heart goes out to any and everyone who live like the people in this video. ❤😢 I pray for humanity.

The (Reserve Currency Privilege) that America and Europe enjoy made them rich while keeping other countries poor. Thanks to the Reserve Currency Privilege America and Europe have, they can print money or borrow money from local banks and use it to finance their own development. India and Africa don't have Reserve Currency Privilege, India and Africa cannot print money or borrow money from local banks to finance their development. If India and Africa don't earn enough USD or EUR from exporting, neither will be able to develop. No country should need the currency of another country to develop; this is colonization and slavery in another form.
Very nice. It's the same anywhere in the world. We are all trying to earn a living. Different circumstances but the same hopes and dreams.

I saw a documentary once where the guys were immersing their entire bodies down in the SEWERS, in literal poop, just for a few specks of gold! I was absolutely HORRIFIED and it made a little muck and sweeping the streets and even the mercury poisoning seem not so bad this time around!
I spent a good portion of my construction career working in sanitation plants. Sure I've been soaked a few times. Never in the way in which this poor guy gets it. Wow, just wow. Sewers can kill in more ways than just the filth.
This is why I’m so grateful for what I have. Because people all over the world are struggling just to get by day by day.
These people are an inspiration
Did anyone else get the irony of the sign on the police truck? "Crime Against women & children & senior citizens Call on..." While they are doing just that exact thing!
we chinese once were poor but I have never see living like this. this pure slum and dirty place. They need to clean up the street , even if you are poor. the health is very important in life.
You chinese are very smart to say no to east indian immigration. They have destroyed every western country they have invaded.
India is overall very diverse from inside The crowd, chaos which you see is just a tiny part of that with the rest of the parts being completely difference For example you can experience a silent forest trek in Himalayan mountains with old buddhist monasteries if you go to Northeast india, you can see a version of Tibet in Ladakh, you can see a natural retreat in the mountain valley in Himachal Pradesh You can experience a typical seaside beach in Goa, you can experience the beauty of tropical backwaters in Kerala and a old European town vibe in the city of Kochi You can be amazed to see the flora and fauna of Ooty a hill station in South India + mountain railway ride in Darjeeling, Himachal Pradesh Moreover you can even experience snowfall in Kullu, Himachal Pradesh Better watch the travel vlogs of India made by american, british youtubers like Ride with Gabi, Those happy days, Dannys Gotta world loose!!!! There is a lot of propaganda in youtube these days against China, India
I guess this is 2014, in the present days more than 11 million new houses are built for the ones who cannot afford. Not many die from hunger, in india we have a worse epidemic of people being not so productive but that's slowly vanishing as basic necessities are available to everyone
This is the real India, an India of hardworking citizens 🫡
Instead of blaming others,we have to make a proper introspection.even after 76 years of independence if we see a lower strata in our society,that shows the failure of our political class.they did not perform their duties well.things can be improved if there is political will.these leaders go to other countries and see the facilities given to their citizens.still they fail to deliver such things to Indian citizens.we think that people are suffering because of their karma or fate. This philosophy is hindering our progress.progress of country is brought about by the development of all citizens.the government must work for that .
Root cause is quality education in India. Once that problem is solved all problems of India will be solved
64* years of independence. This film is from 2011.
That country the people really work hard damn gotta respect there hustle and that looking for gold man
...Inspiring, I like your background music, just right.
For the guy complaining about this documentary, one man's 'shame' is another man's inspiration...
THANK U @Documentary Central for this Documentary
Their level of positivity is superb! A lot I can learn from these people
This was filmed in 2011. Before Modi. Some one should do a follow up documentary on these people again to see how much of upliftment they have had seen since then.
just went here yesterday nothing changed
Yes at least 15+ years old and they are re-uploading it again and again spreading mis-information and propaganda. Things are no more like this.
@@ashutosht10 I just went there yesterday nothing changed
@@lugartan3418 You are a Pakistani, aren't you?
This is Modi’s India shame but truth see what the young do
No, this is the India that Modi inherited from Congress, and is transforming for the better, year after year, with the goal of eradicating poverty by 2050.
this is more than 20 year old documentary
It's extraordinary how they rear children and love their children so much with so little.
I suppose they have the best thing in the world what we all want. To be loved
I had searched " Indian street food" this video popped up.
Awesome work 💯
Very impressive video! Great people with great determination! God bless them!
One of the best documentaries I have watched in a long time - hats off!. I love the individual stories and you really start to feel for the individuals whose life story is on display for the whole world to see. Is there any update on Rajesh's story as well as the book seller? Is there any way to get in touch with them?
This documentory is more than 20 years old😂
@@Knowledge_Wave813 🤣😂🤣😂
It's humbling to see how tough peoples lives can be, but they are still happy and making the best of it. A really enjoyable documentary.
I'm eagerly awaiting your doco "What they don't tell you about life in the USA, UK".
Very sad , a country full of the richest people , advanced in technology , yet their poor suffer . There's money for War and killing innocent people , imagin all those billions spend on saving life's , feed the hungry medcine housing etc Truly it breaks my heart too see this kind of misery
Better watch the travel vlogs of India made by american, british youtubers like Ride with Gabi, Those happy days, Dannys Gotta world loose!!!! There is a lot of propaganda in youtube these days against China, IndiaActually India is the fastest growing economic power currently earlier it was China!!!
Poverty is currently shrinking rapidly as more and more Indians are entering middle class category!
India has the fastest growing middle class and currently India is in its transition phase something which China faced in 1990s, South Korea in 1970s!
Comparing an emerging typical Asian economic powerhouse with a backward Islamic Middle Eastern hellhole is ridiculous
Kolkata is one of the poorest parts of India like Varanasi yet they dont represent that huge country which is very very different on an average!!!!
There is actually majority of the population in middle class category, only 15 percent in poverty
And there are places in India like Kerala, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh which have zero rapes and beautiful nature!!!!
South India, Northeast India are literally safe!!!
They are happy! Happier than many westerners. There is a great novel set in India that talks about this. If you can find it, it's called "Shantaram".
Religion pays a big part, as it always does when there is misery
@@Gerryjournal They are not in misery. The slum life is highly organised and co- operative. There are people living there by choice, even some quite well off.They are happier than many westerners.
What i love most about these documentaries about other countries, no matter how remote they live. Wether its in Villages, tribes, wealthy, whatever, we all are more similar than different. A middle class western, or European family has the same daily struggles within your family. The wife getting mad at the husband for not doing his chores, getting kids ready for school, and kids pestering their busy moms while dad is 5ft away doing nothing. Moms and dads adoring their kids, spoiling them, and wanting the best for them.
this documentary was shot at least 10 years or more back in time... India is changing fast.
It's not changing for the better ! just like the rest of the world.
I agree, I live in one of 100 smart cities promised by Modi 10 years ago near Faridabad Slum , some miles away from GHAZIPUR landfill. Soon India will be 3rd largest economy thanks to increase in our Population..
from a bad sheet-hole to a worse sheet-hole. LOL
Very nice documentary shown. Thanks to feature maker!
Indians remind me a lot of Africans. They take life's challenges with courage, good humour, stoicness and optimism. I am not surprised that a German guy told me that by the 3rd quarter of the 21st century, India will have the largest economy in the world.
Africans are vastly different from Indians
This is one of the best documentaries I've seen in a long time very eye opening stuff
Excellent documentary. Thank you for that!
Welcome to India,the largest termite colony on the planet.

I really appreciated your will power that you were even able to go to these type of places where a normal indian will never even think in his dream to even spit!😂
True 😅
We have similar lifestyle in the Philippines...I love Indians....Hope to visit India someday.
"We all stay together because UNITY IS STRENGHT" - beautiful said.
United for better scamming for sure.
I'm proud of my country india..real hustlers are born here....
I have never seen a documentary this close and real. Salute.
Wow! Massive respects to all poor people grinding and hustling so hard to make a living or better living. I loved this documentary. I hope Rajesh and Kaley find success that they have dreamed of.
Thank you for adding subtitles for us, non indians. Sending big love from France.
India is a great example of not even a 3rd world country, behind the veil and PANAUTI media this is the reality of India.
India is the only country which still have rat children, (meaning neglected children who stay in railway stations. Just a we while ago India was 108th on world hunger index with 85% poverty, even thats flattering for them😢😢
Mohammedraasul is really problem of india

@@MegaApurv007 just 'cause it's old video does it justify...
@@heyygore no it's not justified but it's insanely retarded to be outraging about a 20 year old video, this level of poverty doesn't exist anymore. What do you think about India? Do you think that most of Indians live like that?
@@heyygoreYes, because now only 10% of people in India has poverty. 11 million houses has been build for homeless people.
MY GOD! I GREW UP ENTIRELY IN AFRICA AND EVEN IN THE POOREST COUNTRY WHERE I LIVED, I NEVER SAW THAT LEVEL OF DESTITUTION!!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! HOW CAN PEOPLE LIVE LIKE THAT!? AND THEY ARE REALLY LOVELY BECAUSE THEY STILL MANAGE TO SMILE, LAUGH AND HAVE FUN! WHAT INCREDIBLE RESILIENCE THEY ARE SHOWING IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY! I SAW A LOT OF POVERTY IN AFRICA, BUT NEVER QUITE LIKE THAT! REALLY! AND WHAT LOVE THEY SHOW FOR EACH OTHER, WHAT SOLIDARITY! AND A MERE NOTHING MAKES THEM SO HAPPY! ALL MY ADMIRATION TO THESE PEOPLE! THEY ARE TRULY AWESOME!
India's poverty has decreased a lot from 55% to 16%
Its 20 years old documentary 😂😂😂
Don't be sad, we know what we have achieved today
Don't forget, Africa gets a lot of aid from West and China. If not for all the aid, African people would also have lived a life of destitution and hopelessness. Also, population of entire African continent is about the same as population of India. That means, poverty is also concentrated.
@@sansin6250 its the crowds that make for the misery.
@@nmo3148 agree. But population control is hard to implement for many demographic reasons.
