How such brilliance and talent can emerge from such squallor is an inspiration to everyone.I lived in India for 2 years and now live in Amsterdam. I hope to have my Indian nephew visit next year - the difference between a 13 year old Indian child and a 13 year old European is more than a world apart. I just wish I had done something this useful in my time in India - top marks to Zara Auntie - I hope she finds some happiness in her achievements. It is so difficult to make a change in a place where everyone accepts their lot as 'karma'. One of the absolute best documentaries on this beautiful site.

I guess its high time we Indians wake up to reality, shed aside d burden of age-old ignorance. I don't know which stand is correct but I know that its all pervasive and in all ages. during mauryan times prostitution was legal and taxed. there is no world as we dream of 'Ram-rajya" I believe it should be legalized as we are denying some fundamental rights to prostitutes.

It just goes to show how much education can go and how much some people with they could have. Americans trough away this blessing by dropping out of school. I am a university student and want to achieve a carrier as a teacher to make a difference in this world. My dream has always been to go to all these third world countries and make a difference.

It's an eye-opener. Even as we all claim to believe in solidarity but, most of us are not making any effort or not able to really do something.I am really happy that atleast few of the kids are now able to live better lives and I wish it was true & possible for all of them and every child in Sonagachi who has not been shot in the film.Infact, a show called The Unstoppable Indians on Indian TV News Channel NDTV covered a documentary "The birth of a Union" on the lives of women in Sonagachi and how few of these women working in brothels have founded a union and a board, set up a cooperative bank, healthcare center and many other associations to make themselves and their children live a better and secure life. Infact, I came to know about "Born into Brothels" only after watching this video on the TV channel. Here is the video of the same http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUO_RZdM-isAtleast, we see that some of these women still want to live better lives beyond the Asia's largest Red Light District, Sonagachi. No one wants to get into such kind of work on her own will, it's the circumstances that make these women get into it.The most important thing is how to prevent their children from getting into this profession and embrace studies and education. Well, that demands a huge effort. But, it is possible. Speechless…….is my state just after watching this film. It’s an eye-opener.

Atleast, we see that some of these women still want to live better lives beyond the Asia’s largest Red Light District, Sonagachi. No one wants to get into such kind of work on her own will, it’s the circumstances that make these women get into it.

The most important thing is how to prevent their children from getting into this profession and embrace studies and education. Well, that demands a huge effort. But, it is possible.

The fact that modern teens believe everything should come easy and with out work is completely wrong. Lucky for those children in Calcutta that they have great people willing to help them with no cost. I wish them all a blessing and have those children in my prayers. Expecially Gour and Puja. Lucky Avijit is in NYU.
