An Indian couple and eight of their family members are trying to get into the Guinness World Records as the biggest albino clan in the world.
The 10-member family, headed by husband and wife Roseturai Pullan, 50, and Mani, 45, all have snowy pale skin and poor vision.
Roseturai and Mani had an arranged marriage in 1983, and gave birth to sons Vijay, 25, Shankar, 24 and Ramkishan, 19. They also had daughters Renu, 23, Deepa, 21 and Pooja, 18.
All six children inherited their parent's albinism.
The eldest daughter, Renu, then married another albino Rosheh, 27. Together they had their now two-year-old son Dharamraj, who is also an albino.
According to media reports, the family lives in a crammed one-bedroom flat in Delhi, and have endured years and years of discrimination, stares and jeers, and hardship.
Roseturai told The Sun UK that he has heard people call them 'angrez' - which means 'English' - having mistaken them as Westerners.
"It's hard for people to understand we're born and bred Indian," he said.
The condition also does not allow them to see clearly or sit under the sun for too long.
Albinism is a congenital disorder where the body fails to produce the pigmentation melanin
