A Story About India. Need Assistance!?


From a previous question i posted a few days ago (called Some More Story Assistance), you might know that I am writing a story about a man who goes into the slum areas of Delhi to understand true poverty, as well as to get redemption for the things that he did against the poor when he was young, at his school. I think this story might work, so i really need some suggestions as to how I can make this better.
The story first begins with a series of documentaries between people of Delhi, after the events of Amir (the man0 going into the slums to live for a few months, even though he had a very good career ahead of him.
the story then begins a month into his stay, where he has formed relationships with a variety of slum people, specifically a young man named Sanjay, he works with in a local shop. Sanjay’s father commits suicide from drug- withdrawal, and he soon follows by getting to drugs as well. Amir notices this, and instead of saving up his money for food and water, decides to give most of it to help Sanjay’s addiction. eventually, the gang group he gets affiliated with kills him, and, blaming the store boss for t=his death, Amir loses his job, and begins obtaining food from the garbage well as the dumps near his home, where most homeless kids find their food.
He forms another relationship with a young schoolboy named Chintu, who lit his father’s friend’s house on fire for calling his mother a hore. then, Guilty over his actions, runs away from home, and is found by Amir, who returns him home after persuading him to do so. The parents, as a return favor for bringing back home the boy, decide to give him a job at a local fast food stand, where he encounters his old girlfriend, but she fails to recognize him.
Chintu, the young boy, is constantly abused and mocked by the wealthy school kids, as well as his sister, similarly how Amir used to tease the poor schoolchildren when he was young. One day, Chintu gets into a fight with one of the boys that mock him, and ends up getting severely hurt. His sister helps him home, where his father expains to him that he shouldn’t fight back the wealthy, even if they fight…
This is all I have so far…am i going in the right direction?
Any type of feedback will be helpful
thank you.
