All of eight years and Sharath V is already part of a Guinness record. What makes his record stand out is that he achieved this feat along with his father Viswanathan Ramadass.

The dad son duo were part of the largest melam ensemble of 315 people who performed in Chennai recently. Sharath, a third standard student of PSBB, who has been training for over two years, is senior to his banker father who followed his son’s melam sticks a year later. In addition to Sunday classes the two of them have been rigorously training for two hours everyday from 5 in the morning for three months in the run up to the grand event. While Sharath’s dream is to play at Sabarimala, Vishwa plays to keep stress from work at bay.
