Conjoined twins Shivanath and Shivram Sahu caused a significant stir when they certainly were born in India, with some people in their village worshipping them as divine incarnations. And while one doctor has said that it would be possible to separate them, the 12-year-old boys, have been born joined at the waist, are determined to remain together.

The twins share two legs and four arms and work in tandem to move around. They're believed to generally share exactly the same stomach but have independent lungs, hearts and brains.

  The twins are able to walk down the stairs of their simple split-level home and even operate on all six limbs to play cricket and other games with neighbouring children. And with practice they've learned to complete all their 
basic daily chores with minimal fuss, including showering, eating, getting dressed and combing each other's hair. They are also talented academics and considered among the most effective students at their local school, much to the pride of their doting father, Raj Kumar, 45, who has five daughters. 
 Doctors believe it's possible to separate the twins - but there will be drastic consequences for Shivanath, who seems to be the weaker of the two twins. Shivram would probably keep both legs and could start living an even more normal life while Shivanath would be left without legs and needing full-time care.

Hence the twins and their father are adamant they will not be parted. Their father said:

‘For everyone it is good fun to watch my children, but only I understand all the problems they have. During rainy season it becomes difficult for them to walk and when one wants to sit the other has to lie down.

But they don't fight. They have similar opinions and if one says he wants to play the other one agrees. God has created them like this so they have to walk like they do. They will remain like this. I don't want anything else. Even if doctors say so, I won't get my children separated. I have no interest in money. I'm the one who will work hard to nourish them. I don't need any help.’
Shivram also said:
‘We don't wish to get separated. We will stay like this even when we grow old. We want to live as we are.
