Marathi film aspiring to create Guinness World Record through the medium of Relay singing…

This is first ever time that Relay singing is carried out in Indian Film Industry. In this process many singers come together to lend their musically matched voices to a song with each one singing a single word. In an earlier Relay singing recorded in 2006 at United Kingdom 288 students of John Bell School had come together to create a World Record. In another event Relay singing was recorded at Santosh Rungta Institute, Rajasthan in 2014. However this is the first time that such a song with Relay singing is being recorded for Indian Film Industry. The anxiety is huge as the experiment will be carried out in a Marathi film.

Virag Madhumalati Wankhade has taken up the challenge for success in the same. His efforts are focused on achieving a place in Guinness World Records for Relay Singing. He has always selected odd paths to prove his mettle. He created a social cause through placing a band over his eyes for 100 days. Then he created record on a Reality Show ‘ Guinness World Record Ab todega India’ on Colors Channel through his synchronized Tabla playing with 155 Tabla players for 90 seconds. With this Guinness World Record in place he is confident that Relay singing will also be successful.
