I had a coworker who was a habitual liar like this. One day he told us this big story of how the CIA was following him on his skateboard one day, another time he was working for NASA, another time he told us he was training to become a navy seal. We had a post it under the front desk with a list of all the “professions” and job “experiences” he had. Mind you we worked at a retail store at the mall selling speakers 😂 we added to that list frequently. It was just so bizarre. I’ve never met anyone like that.

[@mariah6395]

Yes, agreed

[@grayk3803]

She seemed medicated to me. At my most depressed/medicated, I’ve been known to act in a similar way. Whether you believe everything she says or not, she’s been through a lot. She got into a weird abusive relationship, she had a successful business that she sabotaged, she went to jail. I think she’s just a woman who was clinically depressed for a long time and still appears to be for obvious reasons. I’m not excusing her actions, I’m mainly just saying labeling her as “sociopathic,” “narcissistic,” etc. like some people have been doing is probably a bit much.

[@denioops2903]

My husband and I watched this documentary. We came to conclusion that she fell for this nonsense because she always thought she was "different" from everyone else. This just played into her own belief of herself.

[@CarolinaFlorezCoaching]

I couldn’t get through the while thing, but thank you, that does make a lot of sense. 👏

[@kaneykane3449]

She did not come out of this well at all.

[@BlurryNova]

I usually try not to judge people who've been manipulated like this, but this doc kinda shows she had far more opportunities to be pulled out of the delusions he was feeding her but she chose not to look deeper into it. Like its one thing for someone take advantage of, say a nobody who doesn't have a support system, possibly struggling with life and no one to turn to. Those types of people are usually prime targets for this type of stuff because they don't have anyone on the outside to keep them grounded, but this woman had plenty of people around her warning her of the guy. She had employees, friends, coworkers, all these people that he wasn't really trying to block out of her life, who we see knew something was up and attempted to save her. At some point, this does fall on her because she still chose to follow him and his wacked out story even after people tried to pull her out of it. So I do believe she has to have had a "Not Like Other People" persona that was being fed by this dude. She might have been a victim in the beginning, but by the end, not so much.

[@ezra4320]

Yeah at a certain point it was just entitlement and a sense of superiority steering her through fall of this. But an interesting look into a manipulative narcissistic relationship, I was surprised to see the similarities between her husband and someone I knew to be like him. If anything the show was a very good psychoanalysis

[@taylorgayhart9497]

That’s a pretty common manipulation tactic. It’s also why parents shouldn’t foster ideas in their kids about being “special” or smarter than others, because it is usually followed by a hard fall to reality.

[@nicolemenard2147]

Maybe but her reactions and some things that happened definitely scream mental abuse. Like it's crazy not the situation but the things she went through and feels mirror what I went through so closely. Obviously she could be lying but I don't know. I'm at least inclined to believe she was mentally abused hard which makes it easier to believe all of it in my opinion.

[@hollycrawford3166]

@@nicolemenard2147 oh, there's definitely evidence for mental abuse....at least in this documentary. That went along with my 'over her head' remark. She got in deep monetarily AND ideologically. I do think she realized that she was in a lot of trouble and ran from it, and in ways that makes her complicit. It goes to show how mixed up stuff like this is, and how it can change someone. Who would willingly give up an empire for what he was selling unless you were all mixed up?!

As someone who works in finance, knowing she had a background in investment banking.. there is no way she wouldn't know the repercussions of blowing off her investors. The SEC requires certain licenses and certifications to be in the industry... they make you take exam after exam that outlines all of the consequences of doing shady stuff like this. She is no victim.. in my opinion. Thank you for the commentary! I love your videos.

I feel like there's two sides. She was manipulated by him, but she was also greedy. She married him because she thought he would pay off the 2 million dollar debt she took on in her divorce for the restaurant.

[@cailin5309]

This whole thing happened bit by bit & what happens in these manipulative relationships is you start out being faced with 1 red flag, ignore it enough & it becomes normal.. then the 2nd (even more rediculous) red flag & THAT becomes normal, & so on. Until eventually you find yourself in a new reality where this is all normal to you & you don’t see it so glaringly rediculous anymore. It’s why people in abusive relationships last so long. Your mind adapts to survive

There's a legal point where a victim also becomes a perpetrator. I think she crossed that point when she knew her employees weren't going to be paid. Between this and the Tinder Swindler I am flabbergasted these con men are able to get so much money out of people. If my sister asked me for $100 I would need an itemized list of everything she wanted to use that money for.

I guess I feel bad for her because I have seen this in action. My mom met a guy who did the whole "I'm a badass secret super soldier" thing and, let me tell you, they are really convincing. He took so much money from her, got her to do all this stuff. It took a while for her to dump him.

Ok, I owned her cookbook when I went through my own raw vegan experimental phase (spoiler, it was an eating disorderrrrr) AND whenever I had moments of weakness (uh.. my body literally starving) I would always order pizza and wings too.

[@writersloane]

Eating raw vegan cured me of a decade of chronic illness in four months! It's not an eating disorder. Many, many people have been healed of terminal illness by eating pure, live, food. People get so hungry in the beginning because it metabolizes quickly. Your body doesn't have to work hard to digest it, the way it does with dead, factory made food. If you're hungry, just eat more! You'll still have more energy than eating a doughy pizza and needing a nap after.

[@bmet102]

Sarma had a 2 million dollar debt on that restaurant. She thought he was going to give her the money to pay that off. That's why she married him. She says as much. She also actively tried to swindle people into donating more money, making the investor fly around to meet some guy she knew didn't exist for her own gain. She was manipulated by Shanthony but was a con woman in her own right. No sympathy from me.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

The thing is, the business was making money. Had she just kept the guy out of it, the debt likely would have been paid off. But she was so focused on that debt.

[@melanietempleton2605]

[@kmac7302]

I can understand that people can be manipulated into believing the most outlandish things, but she knew she was not paying her employees. Ripping off faceless investors is one thing ( not defending it, it's still wrong) but ripping off people that you personally see every day and knowing that they rely on the pay check that they have worked for to survive while you are living it up on holidays or day dreaming about immortal dogs is another level. I've been in that position before and it's infuriating to see your boss posting on social media about their latest manicure while they are three weeks behind on your wages and you can't pay your bills.

But do you know what he calls security the most for?… people pooping and peeing themselves. Yep, he calls down because these people are so addicted that they will literally sh*t and piss themselves over “risking” getting up to go to the bathroom. I used to be addicted to cigarettes and got to a point where I was smoking a pack a day. But I never got to the point where I’d sh*t myself in public just to keep smoking my cigarettes.

I have an extremely hard time viewing her as a "victim". First, if she believed half of what he was telling her off the bat with no proof, then she is not brain washed, she is extremely gullible. Who in their right mind would believe that someone can make them and their dog immortal?? Secondly, she doesn't come off as remorseful at all..she is asked questions and just very casually answers them with no emotions, no guilt, no embarrassment that as a grown woman she allowed all of this to go on as long as it did, especially after finding out he took her mom for money as well. And thirdly, when it ended with her having a recent phone call with him and laughing like they were just reminiscing about memories, it came off to me that she was the biggest con artist in the situation bc she got all these people to believe her. She acts more like a 15 year old girl who just saw Twilight for the first time and wants to believe her vampire heartthrob is coming to take her away to a better life, all while her employees are worrying about how they are going to pay their bills. I hated every second of it and wish I didn't waste my time. I can't believe she was paid to sit there and nonchalantly give half-assed answers.

[@brittcuz1321]

My thoughts exactly. I feel like if I was truly brainwashed/manipulated and then finally was “broken” from that “spell”.. I would feel remorse and would want to show that to others to tell them how sorry I was. I got angry when they asked her a question along the lines of thinking one way.. she got super defensive and annoyed. From watching victims from mental abuse or cults.. you usually see a sense of remorse or confusion reflecting based on that time. When you look at the call she had with the guy in the very beginning about doing the documentary it only felt like a way to clear her name

Here's why Sarma is not a victim. All of her fantastical motivations for lying and "borrowing" money were SELFISH.

She believed that was the only way to live based on shanthony (but I definitely agree that his logic to his whole money and immortality is very selfish). I don't think it's so black and white though - It reminds me how he keeps telling her over and over how the restaurant opened again after the first time it closed and he convinced her everything would work out for everyone if she just did was needed to do (money-wise) to gain immortality/etc..

After all that, its still "Anthony's fault". Nah, she was a willing accomplice and deserves to be ashamed. I think you're too close to the situation and can't see how wrong she is. She naively allowed herself to believe this crazy otherworldly story where she could be, not only a mogul, but something so special as immortal...by a dude she met on Twitter/Words with Friends...who also said her dog was immortal. That's utterly delusional. Abused or not, if you do the wrong thing, people get to talk about it. Especially if its this comically exaggerated delusion of grandeur. Nobody would talk about you like that because you didn't turn a blind eye to astro-babble bullshit. You fell into the cycle and had a hard time getting out.
