Drifting a car is not an ordinary task. But the Power Drift Studios set the record for unboxing a smartphone while performing the fastest drift in a sports car. Gaurav Gill, a champion of premier car races in the country, achieved this feat by unboxing the OnePlus 11 mobile while drifting a Lamborghini Huracan Spyder at a speed of 205.47 kmph at the NATRAX automotive test tracks, Pithampur.

The record for the maximum number of people performing Surya Namaskar together was created by the Sakal Media Group. The mass Surya Namaskar and Omkar programs were organized at 2000 places in Maharashtra, in which 5,67,000 people took part. The record for being the youngest TEDx speaker was set by Advait Kolarkar (8) of Pune, who got into ABR by giving a TEDx talk at Indraprastha University, Delhi.

The record for the maximum number of hula hoop spins in 1 minute was set by Aanvi Reema Saneesh of Kannur. She performed 195 spins in a minute at the age of 5 years, 5 months, and 14 days. With the electric vehicles making their way, Hyundai (India) set a record for the fastest EV run, covering the 7 Wonders of India. The Hyundai IONIQ-5 team embarked on a journey from Delhi to visit the Golden Temple, Taj Mahal, Khajuraho, Nalanda, Sun Temple, Hampi and Gomateshwara, covering 6458 km.

Chinmay Prabhu (24) created the record for making the largest mosaic of Sai Baba using 4212 Rubik's Cubes at Sai Teerth Bhakti Theme Park, Shirdi. Then, the record for performing a continuous drift for the longest duration in a car was set by Launch Control India at the Buddh International Circuit, Greater Noida, when Mudit Grover, driving a modified Mercedes Benz C-Class, drifted non-stop for 19 minutes, 20 seconds.
