It feels great when the work you do is recognized by the people who is present around you. Today I have that great feeling.

Its the achievement which gives me more happiness, If it was not there, my name would have not made that far.
4.How did you come across this online game?
I was very much interested about Guinness World Records since I was kid, that interest made me to find an Online game, to set the record.
I was surfing GWR website and found lot of challenges, and this online game named "QWOP" attracted me , so gave a try.
5.There are several online games, does Guinness recognize all of those?
Not all, there are only few games.
6.Who encouraged you or inspired you to achieve this record?
I wanted to make my parents and hometown proud. So I chose this platform. Once I set my target, I got encouragement from Parents, Relatives, Friends to go for it and reach my target.
7.In which school did you study and did you have this goal of setting a Guinness Record since childhood?
I studied in Kishora Vidya Bhavana, as I said before I was interested in GWR from kid, It started in school library, when I picked up Guinness Book Of Records and started to go through all the records. And lets not forget Govt., Polytechnic Chintamani, where I did my diploma.
8.Online games are played world over, how many participants/competitors were there in the fray?
In the event which I participated, there were 8 participants, including players from Netherlands, USA, UK. And after the news got published, now i got more competitors to defend the title.
9.Your parents & family should be very ecstatic about your achievement?
Yes they are, being their son, it feels good to see happiness in their faces.
10.Yours is the first Guinness Record for your town Chintamani, what was the response from the folks of your home town?
All were proud to hear that "Chintamani" gamer made into Guinness World Records. Many people from my home town (Chintamani) congratulated me on this achievement.
This includes some big names like MLA "Sudhakar Reddy" sir.
11.Further, have you set your eyes on any other record? What is it?
Yes, now its been a kind of relief for me after this achievement. Which makes me easier to break more records. As of now I have planned to break a record named "Longest Individual Net Session (cricket)" which is Batting in the Nets for more than 24 hours, as a guy from USA has set the record of 24 hours.
12.What do you think are the glitches anybody could face while planning to break or set new Guinness record? Especially a small town person like you?
There are few, or a lot of issues that a common guy from a small town will face, though I didn't face any glitches in online line game record.
On the other side I started with an attempt break the cricket record in 2011, till now I am facing difficulties in organizing the event. I couldn't find the sponsors, and who can organize the event. I wish, I could raise funds for some good cause.
Now I am already a Guinness World Record holder, it should not be that difficult to aim for other records.
13 CC, on behalf of all it's readers wishes you best of luck in all your future endeavor. Any message you want to convey to your friends and the people of Chintamani?
One thing I would like to say to the people of Chintamani is "Do what you can do the best, and make it reach heights"
