A 16-year-old Indian girl, Srushti Sudhir Jagtap, has broken the Guinness World record for the longest dance marathon by an individual.
She broke the record with a time of 127 hours in India, surpassing the previous record of 126 hours by Nepalese dancer, Bandana Nepal, in 2018.
According to the Guinness World Record Official Adjudicator, Swapnil Dangarikar, the dance marathon took place in her school’s auditorium, which was packed with supporters and her parents.
Jagtap began the marathon performance on May 29 and concluded it on June 3 in the afternoon.
According to GWR on Wednesday, a recognised dancing style must be performed to a fair standard, and the participant’s feet must always be in rhythm with the music in order to break the record.
Kathak is one of the eight primary styles of Indian classical dance performed by Jagtap.
She devoted 15 months preparing for her attempt to break the record. Baban Mane, her patriarch, instructed her.
The majority of Jagtap’s slumber occurred at midnight, when she napped or spoke with her parents.
