“Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us.”

-Oscar Wilde.

Time moves in one direction and memory in another and that is the beautifully striking contrast which makes the human a unique human being who is able to secure memory banks in his tiny mind. It is said that God gave us memory so we might smell roses even in December. Master Srikar's legendary saga talks on the similar line of having a photographic memory and setting the world record for the same. Little Srikar who hails from Bangalore, Karnataka can recite 164 countries and their capitals and also 28 states of India with their capitals at the age of just 3 years and 11 months. World Book of Records, London is astonished to see the curiosity and perseverance of the little one and includes him in its Kids edition-2022.

Srikar's story began from the age of almost 3 years and 10 months when his parents noticed that Srikar was able to remember few countries and their capitals told by his parents and he never needed to be told twice. This turned out to be the eureka moment for the parents and they thought to take it forward and trained him memorising country and world capitals. Srikar proved his mettle once again and memorised it all in one shot. His mother became more active and then never looked back in training the little one and that is how their journey of World Book of Records began.

If energy had a face, it would be Srikar's. The little Einstein is energetically active all the time and takes part in every single academic activity being held in his school. Be it shloka recitals or physical activities, Srikar does everything effortlessly.

His parents are proud of his powerful memory and his brilliant grasping power. His curiosity is at unique levels which is well proven from that fact that if he is given a toy, then he prefers to dismantle it first in order to rejoin it again rather than playing with it. Besides this curious nature, he is never tired of asking questions and his parents think that this is what has helped him in sharpening his brilliant memory.

Srikar loves to play football and throwball and also spend time lovingly indoors as well and loves colouring, singing and also recites Sanskrit Shlokas. The best thing about Srikar is that he is always on the go for learning and he loves to learn new things. His habit of never sitting idle is what is making him outshine others and stand apart. World Book of Records, London wishes him all the best for his future endeavours.
