Daughters of Destiny

Amazing, inspiring and selfless work done by Abraham George, his family and Shanti Bhavan volunteers. The documentary is very interesting and shot very well. The english of the kids is so good and they are so positive and very matured thinking, hats off to the teachers who have been imbibing these qualities in them 🙏🙏. The kids are so cute and so responsible.

Thanks to Abraham and all the contributors of this wonderful school for poor families, may God bless them and all the kids abundantly with happiness, good health and success 🙏🙏🙏 Thanks to Netflix too 🙏🙏

An awesome documentary that gives us an opportunity to correct they why we think. Once we see the lives of the children and backgrounds that they come most of us will feel that we have "Privileged" lives and what are we complaining about? A great effort to showcase not only the lives of some underprivileged children but also the NGO that runs Shanti Bhavan. No amount of appreciation is more for the NGO that runs Shanti Bhavan & the teachers there. They are the real superheroes in real life, who are really making a difference in our society. I feel we as a society should give them the credit they deserve and contribute to the development of the underprivileged. They making is really good and most of narratives are presented by the people involved. It was a real soul enriching journey for me watching these 4 episodes.

This series took me completely by surprise. I stumbled across it by chance and it truly changed my life. So refreshing--upon a mostly superficial entertainment landscape comes this flash of genius.

Watch this show if you want any of the following: 1) to be inspired by individuals who have thoughtfully and intentionally set most of their lives aside to change the future of India; 2) be humbled by (and reminded of) the plight of those who are categorized as untouchables in India; or 3) be extremely impressed by the insightful writers of this show who have put a lot of skill and thought into how to best present their amazing subject matter to the Western world.

Thank you to all who were involved in the making of this remarkable series. I have recommended this show to all my friends and some of us are now watching it for our "book group," (yes, instead of reading a book . . . it's that good.)

Education is an important tool for any country to lift her people out of proverty but what Dr. George is what doing can be compared to likes of Mother Theresa. So unselfish in his approach and vision to lift people out of proverty, inequality, and patriarchal society system totally commendable. I am an atheist, I don't believe in miracle or blessing, but what Shanti Bhavan to our society is beyond definition of God stature.

Talking about the mini-series, story of Shanti Bhavan told thru life of Dr. George, his teachers and children. As I navigate through episode, my eyes welled up and throat crackle. Wish continuing success to Shanti Bhavan.

I gave this such a high rating as I really want people to watch it. It is brilliantly made, never over the top or 'in your face', just beautifully put together. I love that it was made over many years, and I can imagine how difficult it must have been to get it right, with so much material.

The story will stir up all your emotions over the episodes and whatever state it leaves you, you will know that you have watched something pure and beautiful.
