A man born with a facial disfigurations who feared he'd never find love is now happily married - after being set up by a friend. Amit Ghose, 33, was born with neurofibromatosis type 1, a condition that causes tumours to grown along nerves.
He lost his left eye when he was 11 and wore an eye patch while waiting for a prosthetic eye, leading to bullying at school. But despite those challenges, Amit says he's "always" embraced his disfigurement and has a "positive personality".
Often overhearing distant family comment on his looks at family weddings, Amit worried that he would never find love. But after being introduced to a woman called Piyali by a family friend in May 2021, he's never looked back.
