Sometimes real life can be very harsh and emulate the most fictitious situations we could ever fathom. Take, for example, a schoolboy from India who suffers from a rare condition known as Hypertrichosis.

Lalit Patidar goes to school in India and has lived with what is commonly known as ‘Werewolf Syndrome’. But the 13-year-old boy has dreams of defying his condition and becoming a policeman.
Lalit Patidar is from Ratlam in the Central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh and was born with Hypertrichosis. The rare condition is characterised by abnormal hair growth on the face, arms and other parts of the body.

Despite his condition, Lalit lives a happy life and dreams of one day supporting his parents by becoming a policeman.
