A World Record You Must Know - 14 languages in 1 song
from Chennai Live · host Chennai Live
To what extent would you go for a seven-minute song? Chennai-based Ankith Gupta did what most musicians would not; spend 7,500 hours putting it together. The song is the result of Ankith’s quest for artistes across the world to collaborate with. He narrowed in on 12 musicians, whose work he really liked. That question lingered and helped him conceive ‘7500’, featuring 14 languages including English, Arabic, Malayalam, German, Hindi, Bangla, Italian, Kannada, Swedish, Spanish, Tamil, Nepali, Jamaican, and Telugu. He has already bagged the certificate for a ‘song composed by an individual in maximum languages’ from the Guiness Book of World Records, India Book of Records and Asia Book of Records.
