Some of its stories are really mind-boggling and inspiring. The Art of Living Foundation created two records for the largest number of people reciting Ganesh Atharvashirsha and the largest number of people taking the pledge for a drug-free India in a place, entering the ABR also. 

A total of 54,560 people recited the hymn at Suryakant Kakde Farm, Pune, while 1,26,613 students participated in the Drug-Free India campaign. The event was supported by Pune University.

On the announcement of the records, Sri Sri Ravishankar said, “It is a matter of pride for all of us to be named in the India Book of Records.”

Drifting a car is not an ordinary task. But the Power Drift Studios set the record for unboxing a smartphone while performing the fastest drift in a sports car. Gaurav Gill, a champion of premier car races in the country, achieved this feat by unboxing the OnePlus 11 mobile while drifting a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder at a speed of 205.47 kmph at the NATRAX automotive test tracks, Pithampur.

The record for the maximum number of people performing Surya Namaskar together was created by the Sakal Media Group. The mass Surya Namaskar and Omkar programs were organized at 2000 places in Maharashtra, in which 5,67,000 people took part. The record for being the youngest TEDx speaker was set by Advait Kolarkar (8) of Pune, who got into ABR by giving a TEDx talk at Indraprastha University, Delhi.

The record for the maximum number of hula hoop spins in 1 minute was set by Aanvi Reema Saneesh of Kannur. She performed 195 spins in a minute at the age of 5 years, 5 months, and 14 days.
