Record - Nonstop 61 Hrs of Saree Design !!

In a bid to enter the record books, a city based textile designer has claimed to have designed 36 sarees non-stop for six hours on a computer. V V R Murthy, Assistant Editor of the Limca Book of records, who was present during the feat, said all details would be sent to Limca after proper documentation. K J Mahesh Kumar began his feat on January 28 at 6:01 am and completed the task at 7 pm on Wednesday, clocking 61 hours, seven hours more than what was stipulated by Limca.

Based on the theme 'Republic India,' Mahesh Kumar designed 36 drawings of national leaders, Indian Map and 24 elephants, during his attempt. He also drew the famous Akshardham Temple. A printout of every design was taken and submitted to the Limca Book of Records. Mahesh took seven breaks of 15 minutes, as permitted and made it a point not to speak during his attempt, so as not to waiver in concentration or lose energy, sources in the Limca Book of Records said. The designs would be auctioned or sold either to designers or saree printers, the proceedings of which would be utilised for charity purpose, they said.
