Deepashree V J, a design engineer from Kumaraswamy Layout, has entered the Guinness Book of World Records for `longest thread of beads made by an individual in one hour'.
She gifted this by beating the previous record of 5.8 metres by making a chain of 19.58 metres at Karnataka Government Secretariat Club.
But it was only in college that she decided to take a shot at the record. "I took eight months to complete the chain of 100 metres, and received my certificate in 2006," adds Deepashree.
When she completed graduation in BE (mechanical) in July 2009, Deepashree applied for the Guinness Records and got certification of her achievement from London on February 19 this year.
Deepashree, who works for General Motors, previously entered into the Limca Book of Records in 2006 for making the `longest bangle chain'.
