A 12-year-old Indian girl has broken a world record in most languages sung in one concert.

Suchetha Satish, who is a Grade 7 student of The Indian High School in Dubai, performed songs in 102 languages, including Croatian, to set a new world record.

Satish performed the multi-language concert at the Indian Consulate in Dubai last month and titled it ‘Music Beyond Boundaries’. The concert lasted 6 hours and 15 minutes.

The first foreign language Satish learned to sing in was Japanese after a friend of her father taught her. She says it usually takes two hours to learn a song. The hardest languages for her were Hungarian, French and German.

By singing a part of one song each in 102 different languages, Satish broke the record of 76 languages sung in one concert set by Ghazal Srinivas back in 2008.
