Raja was 6 years old when he boarded the wrong train and ended up 2.000 kilometers from his home in Kerala. He grew up there with another family and learned another language, but never stopped remembering his past. 13 years later, he returned to hug his mother and sisters

He was 6 years old. It was 2012, and in the middle of a trip with his father, the boy boarded the wrong train.

The separation happened in an instant. What came next lasted much longer: 13 years without the family being able to see him again, 13 years of a son growing up far from home while his loved ones kept waiting for a different ending.

That ending came. After more than a decade, the boy who got lost on a platform reunited with his family, and a story that began with a mistake at a station became one of those reunions that seem impossible.

It takes 13 years to understand how much a single wrong train can weigh.
