Hmmm. I listened to the book, so I didn't pick up on every detail, but in the film they portrayed Guddu as being closer in age to Saroo - or at least, I didn't perceive him to be a teenager. I don't know if Saroo found out he was actually a different age than the guesstimate given by the orphanage officials or if Guddu was younger than he thought. Considering Saroo didn't even know his last name or how to say his first name or town when he was lost it's not surprising that the information is unclear or unreliable.
