Varanasi: Ritika Singh, native of Anand Nagar of Maharajganj, has illuminated the name of her district by making a world record for the first time while living in home under lockdown. An artist thinks of creating an artistry in every environment. When the lockdown started and it was clear that now many months people have to be imprisoned in homes, as an artist, Ritika also started wondering how to change this atmosphere with a positive artwork.
