The most talked about band in India today is more special because of the band mates’ special gifts. Aptly calling their band Isspeshal 6, these six teenagers might have what the world would call a debilitating learning or physical disability, but their musical talent has broken all societal stereotypes.

The six performers of Isspeshal 6 have all overcome disabilities such as autism and dyslexia and even blindness.

Conceptualised by Ashish Patil of Y-Films, this project hopes to affect positive social change through the inspiring stories of the band members.

Ananya Harlankar suffers from autism spectrum disorder, but is a lively girl with a big smile. Her deep, melodious voice can work magic. At 15, she beats a disadvantage with her pitch perfect singing.

Rishaan Patil, 12, is the youngest and funniest member of the 6 Pack Band Version 2.0. The pre-teen’s autism spectrum disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder are no match for his comic skills!

Anjali Ramesh deals with dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia at 15. A fantastic self-trained dancer, she is the magnet that keeps the Isspeshal 6 aka 6 Pack Band Version 2.0 together.

Parth Padhye is quite the charmer, making the ladies swoon with his voice. He’s a dancer, too, all at the young age of 15, despite having semantic pragmatic learning disorder. When on stage, he owns it.

Prerna Agarwal is the most inspiring band mate. The 18-year old has autism spectrum disorder and 100% blindness, but she overcomes these challenges with her unusually powerful hearing ability. She was probably just born a singer.

Inspiring, aren’t they? Here’s to the magic that they create with their music and message.
