To internalize her character, Priyanka Bose went to Madhya Pradesh to meet Kamla Munshi, the mother her character was based on: "My questions were basic and just by meeting her, I could tell how hard her life has been. I got down on my knees and hugged her and thanked her for her courage." When meeting Munshi she was told that she was declared crazy by many villagers in the small town for years, as she never gave up hope that her son would return one day.

Google helped the production and gave the crew access to their satellite imagery to use in the film, providing them with versions of Google Earth from the correct time period, and providing a lot of technical support in order to shoot scenes featuring Google in-camera, which saved the production a VFX budget.
Dev Patel had to develop a new physique to portray Saroo and attended several hours in the gym in order to inhabit his part. He also grew a beard and developed an Australian accent (with Tasmanian dialect), visited Saroo Brierley's orphanage in India and wrote a diary while he took the original train ride that Brierley accidentally took as a young child. In total, he spent eight months preparing for the role.
"Saroo Brierley: I'm sorry you couldn't have your own kids. Sue Brierley: What are you saying? Saroo Brierley: We... we... weren't blank pages, were we? Like your own would have been. You weren't just adopting us but our past as well. I feel like we're killing you. Sue Brierley: I could have had kids. Saroo Brierley: What? Sue Brierley: We chose not to have kids. We wanted the two of you. That's what we wanted. We wanted the two of you in our lives.That's what we chose. [pause] Sue Brierley: That's one of the reasons I fell in love with your dad. [pause] Sue Brierley: Because we both felt as if... the world has enough people in it. Have a child, couldn't guarantee it will make anything better. But to take a child that's suffering like you boys were. Give you a chance in the world. That's something."
"[discussing how to find Saroo's family] Dinner Guests: What paper trail? Saroo Brierley: My mum could not read or write. Dinner Guests: What did she do? Saroo Brierley: A labourer... she carried rocks."
