* FromRagsToRiches: As a child, Saroo lives in a very poor part of India, with his mother putting food on the table by working as a laborer and moving rocks. As an adult, Saroo lives comfortably in an upper-middle class home in Australia, and is attending college to learn how to be a hotel manager. One part of Saroo's angst in trying to find his mother is that he's upset that he's lived so comfortably in Australia while he knows his original family live in poverty in his original hometown.

In turn, Mantosh is somewhat envious of Saroo's success, and gets upset when Saroo claims that he and Mantosh aren't really brothers.

* {{Foil}}: Guddu and Mantosh, Saroo's brothers -- Despite having few memories of his older and biological brother, Guddu, Saroo had a loving relationship with him; he has known his adoptive and (presumably) younger brother Mantosh for almost all of his life but their relationship is strained.

* OrphanageOfFear: Downplayed. The orphanage Saroo ends up in is crowded, loud, and has a less-than-nurturing environment. But the staff is honestly trying, and it's obviously better than what fate would've awaited him on the streets. (And, indeed, what fate nearly befell him when he bumped into Noor.)
