Rajasthan broke the Guinness Book of World Records for preparing the largest roti which weighed more than 150 kilograms. It was created with the help of 21 artisans at the Hari Seva Udasin Ashram Sanatan Mandir in Bhilwara. The record-winning roti was made on Sunday using nearly 200 kg of wheat flour and it reportedly weighed 171 kg, surpassing the earlier record number of 145 kg.
Interesting story behind the roti preparation
The massive roti was made to celebrate a special occasion and make it memorable. The dish was prepared to observe the birthday of a BJP leader from the region identified as Kailash Soni. He told the media that instead of cutting and consuming cakes during the day, he chose to keep his birthday celebration traditional with a roti.
