In hypertrichosis, an abnormal amount of hair starts growing on the body. There are two types of hypertrichosis, the first is generalized hypertrichosis in which hair is present all over the body. Second, there is localized hypertrichosis in which hair grows only in a certain area.
Lalit told that he had these hair on his body all his life. But till the age of 6 to 7 years, he did not find anything strange. After that, for the first time, he realized that he is different from the rest.
Children used to tease Lalit with names like ghosts and monkeys and called him scary. Lalit says that he got to learn many things and the biggest thing he has learned is that he is one in a million, so he should never give up and live life to the fullest.
