The 12-year-old says his extra thumbs up help him excel in cricket, his favorite sport, and in video games like Clash Squad, a war game that won the largest number of downloads in the world in India in 2019. His parents say they are proud of him and know they made the right decision when they rejected The possibility of beating him when he was a baby.



Paisan says his extra thumbs help him "prune trees" in the game at a higher speed than his teammates and thus lead them, as well as help him a lot in cricket.

To his friends he is known as "Curry" - a superhero popular in the Bollywood film series.

Paisan, who hails from the town of Sheri Bramola in Kashmir province, in northern India, says: "I'm proud of it, there's no shame in it - it's God's will.

"But in general, I have good friends at school who encourage me not to think about it that way."



Doctor Mustaq Ahmad says that Paisan's medical condition is a congenital malformation that can break out even if the parents do not have similar malformations.

But Paisan does not intend to cause his disability to prevent him from progressing.

"I want to become a doctor. I want to treat people who are born with problems and make sure no one abuses or answers them. Luckily, I have not encountered such cases in my city."

Paisan's family is also proud of him and tells how well he is coping with his condition.

His mother, Hafiza, says: "I see him progressing nicely in life and excelling."

She said they were offered surgery to remove the extra fingers when he was two years old, but they feared it would bring bad luck.

"When he was two years old, we were offered to put him in for surgery. We consulted with a local saint about it, and he told us he might lose his sight if we operated on him, so we got off the idea."
