Kuchipudi dancer Roopa Rajesh’s accomplishment of performing an eight-minute Kuchipudi Tarangam piece with 1,054 dancers from her Noopura Fine Arts Academy, performed in 2013, has bagged a place in the Guinness World Records.

“The process of verification by Guinness authorities took a long time. This year, we received the Certificate from Guinness World Records,” says Ms. Roopa who trained, directed and guided the entire dance capsule.

The academy will distribute the Guinness World Record certificate to the participants at its annual fest at NMKRV College on December 5 at 10.30 a.m.
