Ek Chutki Aasman goes Slumdog Millionaire way!

Elaborating on the current track of the show, our  source says, "As the story progresses, little Chutki's life takes a huge turn around. Chutki's mami threatens to commit suicide if Chutki stays any longer in the house. Chutki's helpless mama explains to Chutki that he will take her to meet her mother in Mumbai. However, mama leaves Chutki all alone in a train to Mumbai. Chutki reaches the big bad city of Mumbai all alone and she loses her mother's address and her luggage, which has her mother's photograph".

Our source further says, "However, she meets a good Samaritan in the form of a slum boy Gopal (7-8 yrs old), who not only saves her from being jailed for travelling ticket less, but also brings her to his home – a pipe in a slum area of Mumbai. Gopal has an elder brother, Arjun (12-13 yrs). Arjun and Gopal are like chalk and cheese in nature. Gopal is filmy, dramatic, talkative, a brag, believes that there are only short cuts in life and will do anything to earn a few
bucks. Ideally, he is a rogue but a loveable rogue. Gopal's elder brother Arjun on the other hand is a person of few words and leads a straightforward life."

"Initially Arjun objects to Chutki staying with them in the pipe but Gopal convinces him to let her stay and also helps Chutki find her mother. So Chutki's life begins in the Mumbai slums, in the pipe house which Gopal calls 'Jannat' just because Shah Rukh Khan's house is called Mannat," adds our source.

However, Chutki's mother Hemangi is unaware of her daughter's dilemma as Chutki's mami forces her husband not to let out the truth.

We contacted Chavvi Mittal to know more on this stance but she was clueless about the progress as she says, "I can confirm you about Chutki coming to Mumbai but I have no idea of any further developments."

Don't forget to witness the struggle of Chutki along with two new guys In Ek Chutki Aasman!
