SATYAMEV JAYATE final episode: Aamir Khan bids adieu on a super-positive note
In the final episode of his reality show, the actor invited the real heroes of society and highlighted their incredible work
From female foeticide to child sexual abuse, domestic violence to dowry, medical malpractices to untouchability, organic food to water crisis, actor Aamir Khan’s Satyamev Jayate challenged your perception of common issues plaguing our society and our nation at large.
Twelve episodes with twelve serious issues addressed in Satyamev Jayate have managed to touch an emotional chord within us and change many lives for the better. One can’t deny the fact that the show has influenced and contributed to several policy level initiatives and laws. So we were curious to know the topic of discussion on the concluding 13th episode of Aamir’s unconventional reality show.
In the final episode Aamir highlighted the work of real heroes in our society who with their firm resolve and conviction strive hard to put principles into action. For a country which has been independent for 65 years, it is a matter of shame that we still face many problems that stop us from being a progressive state. Our constitution endorses justice, liberty, equality and fraternity for one and all. Will we ever be able to wake up to a truly new and progressive India? asked Khan.
Aamir then brought into focus the extraordinary work being done by real heroes. And how these people continue to inspire others to lead a better life. The Sarvodaya Trust, for instance, draw their inspiration from the constitution that states India is a secular country. Parimal, Tripti, Arvind and Janhavi wholeheartedly adopted the principle of secularism and gave shelter to orphaned children of all communities teaching every child to co-exist in peace and harmony.
We are then introduced to Sunitha Krishnan’s fight against the prostitution mafia and social prejudices. Some so called well-respected individuals in our society who patronize and encourage sex trade don’t want to give the girls a chance to reclaim their lives. The girls rescued from sex trade are facing a unique irony in life.
Education to all is a basic need of a healthy state. Sadly, as Aamir highlighted, nearly 14 crore children in India can’t afford to go to school. The actor then introduced to the audience the phenomenal work done by Babar Ali, probably the youngest Principal in India. Babar,only 19, runs a school to spread the light of education. To practice what he preaches, this teacher juggles between college and teaching his students.
Aamir then discussed the monster of corruption and how it is affecting the well being of our country. It is saddening to know that those who try to walk on the path honesty and integrity are silenced forever.The case in point is Satyendra Dubey. In 2003, Dubey had to pay with his life for trying to blow the lid off scams and corruption in road development projects. Are we worthy of Dubey’s martyrdom? Aamir questioned.
In the end Aamir made a valid point. The actor feels that it is pertinent to ask ourselves an important question. Aamir said that should not limit ourselves by asking what the state, the government is doing for us? Instead, we should now re-frame the question and ask what are we doing , in our capacity, to bring about the change we want to see in our society. “Will we try our level best to follow the path laid down by the Constitution of our country?” he concluded.

Education : Sir I want to bring in your notice the current position of our primary eduction, when we were in school the govt. schools are very good in every aspect while today nobody want to send their child in govt school, reason behind this govt is not capable to maintain it while private schools in which partner of some big shots are running in a good way(like a printing machine of money). Sir you look like other metters you will find many things in which can set a message for all.

Eventually Mr Amir has broken d jinx & really done what many of them have failed, open d doors.But d real challenge is to transform these sentiments into real life social works.?
V d youth of these country would really feel proud if a SATYAMEV COMPANY/TEAM is formed to execute all these activities i.e. to see d AFTER-EFFECTS OF SATYAMEV JAYETE & D POSITIVITY IT BRINGS ABOUT IN D SOCIETY? Otherwise d show rather than being a game changer will be yet another loss.

Hi,
I would not like to say like others that satyameva Jayate is a very good show and inspiring everyone including me. It is true that the show has shaken the mind and soul of many people. but that is not enough. My personal view is that the rout of all the problem lies in us, that is” Hamari sonch Hamara Zameer”.Isko jagana hoga. If we could do this, we can say ‘Satyameva Jayate”. One complete movement is required to be run in complete nation like freedom movement. To make this possible we should come forward to fight against the correption in our social life which will automatically dilute the correption of our country. I personally is ready for this and also ready to serve for the noble cause you have lifted. pls do communicate if possible. Happy Independence Day.

Sir, With all due respects, I thank u and ur team for opening eyes of general public like me by showing these 13 episodes. But, Sir this serial should continue, so that more people come to know about the world which we don’t see. I wish again Satyamev Jayate to resume in a short span of time. Because this serial has neither saas – bahu fights, neither triangular love stories, and moreover it is a family show with inspiration.
Sir, if u can show regarding,
1)Caste reservation in Education and Employment.
2)Adoption.

dear Amir,the real purpose of this show will only be accomplished until people will take some action to uplift at least a person if not the whole society,rather than admiring and flowing tears in their drawing rooms.

Der Amir,
Since QSQT i loved you n u r really a great guy for me superhero and your satyamev jayate was also a great concept but one thing i wanna tell you here is most govt doctors are not present at govt hospital at time they give emphasis to their private clinics only those who have lots of money its alright for them but who cant effort to give doc fees prefer to be in hospital only and i too don’t prefer private clinics but govt hospital only. so we got to give strict instruct that the doctors have to be present at hospital at the correct duty time not late.if the office time is 10 to 4 then then follow this time strictly then only we can do something.
and if in that department the doctor is limited then pl dont make that doctor go to sit in office for secretary or something give them the position but the hospital patient is must they have to be present in hospitals clinic day not in private its very difficult to give money each and every time its really disgusting ya.
the doctors are god for us but if money is everything for them then its useless to be a doctor.

Dear Amir,
The topics you covered in your show and the couragous people who shared their expenreince of fighting against odds, has deeply influenced me. I salute you for brining and highlighting those cases in front of whole world. The social message, you touched, has really hit at the heart and forced to re-evaluate our own individual capability to become a change-agent within society.
The first step in this direction needs to be initiated by all us to bring required change. Examples, as was highlghted in your show, to serve society, and above all, humanity, needs to be demonstrated by coming out from our comfort zone keeping in mind not to expect any return (the most important factor) – no self-fishness.
I have been already indulge in some NGO activities and have taken an oath to help all those who are needy, be human or animals, by doing my best.
Will certainly wait eagerly to your season 2 Satyamev Jayate.
