You don't need to be a singer to get into record books

By: Ketan Ranga    

Yes, you read it right. Infosys software professionals, call-centre employees, businessmen, models, Kingfisher crew, kids, and even handicapped and partially blind people will be part of lyricist Krishna's one-word-per-singer Guinness Book attempt. The eight-and-a-half minute song will feature over 350 singers.

333 singers

Already, 333 people have sung a word each for Krishna, who likes to be known as Tak Dhina Dhin The Musik Man, and the earlier record of 201 singers featuring in one song has been broken.

The Infosys HR department had sent an e-mail to its employees about the concept and eight employees came forward to be part of the song.

Fun stuff

Vasu Belide, software engineer, Infosys, said, "I sang 'Come on, come on let's have some fun'. They will select one word and fit it into the song.

It was great fun and we will be part of the Guinness Book. We will also be associated with big singers."

Krishna said, "Most of the song has been sung by singers, but we had kept the entries open for people from all over the country, as it was something different. Through this song, they will be part of the record books."

The Singers

The singers include Kumar Sanu, Udit Narayan and his family, Hema Sardesai, Bali Bhrambhatt, Javed Ali, participants of Indian Idol, Voice of India and other reality shows.
