THanks
du -k /path worked (du -hs /path did not)
Now the question is why 3 entries.
108 /some path
4 /some other path
82712 /Actual path
Actual path is the folder where i was looking for.

Sorry I got it by myself.
Those other entries are the directories under my path.
Thanks for the help!

NAME
mkdirp(), rmdirp() - create, remove directories in a path
SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
