Sourabhee Sings Upside Down, And Breaks Guinness Record

In the first episode of Colors TV’s new show Guinness World Records — Ab India Todega, former India Idol winner Sourabhee Debbarama attempted to sing a song hanging upside down. She has taken up the challenge to break the existing record of New Zealand’s Rebecca Wright, who sang upside down for three minutes and 53 seconds.

“I contacted the production house after watching the show’s promos on TV to check whether they have any record on singing. I learnt about this record from them,” says Sourabhee.

The 24-year-old singer says that it wasn’t easy practicing singing upside down “On the first day, I got a very bad headache and couldn’t sleep well,” she said. “I practiced for five-six days and slowly got used to it.”

The singer was judged on her voice, singing and the pauses between the three songs that she sang: Kuch Toh Hua Hai and It’s The Time To Disco (both from Kal Ho Naa Ho) and Bhumroo (Mission Kashmir).

“I think I performed well; I sang for about four minutes and 30 seconds,” she said.
