Twelve-year old Indian boy ArSide Ali Khan has a tail on his back that is a result of medical disorder. However, that's not what his countrymen believe! They think that he is the reincarnated version of the Hindu monkey god Hanuman. The boy’s house, where he lives with his grandparents, is now considered a religious place and a large number of people come to his temple to worship. They believe that the boy is actually Balaji, a reincarnated form of the Hindu entity Hanuman. They often hand over their ‘god’ money in lieu of his blessings.
Doctors, on the other hand have concluded the boy has this disease from birth and it initiated due to underdeveloped ribs. So, the tail is actually a deformity rather than a religious sign. Also, the boy has some spinal disorders of lower magnitude. Doctors have warned the family members that if they don’t get this tail operated soon enough, it will turn into a fatal disease.
