Mumbai/Ahmedabad: Dr Rajendra Prasad, who plays Quick Gun Murugun in his

forthcoming film by the same name, has decided to enter the Guinness

Book of World Records of preparing the largest dosa' in the world. He

would do this at Sankalp restaurant (currently the Guinness record

holder with a 30-feet-long dosa') in Ahmedabad on Wednesday.

 

Sixteen cooks will help him make the world's largest dosa and his target

is to break the record in less than 40 minutes.

 

Says Vivek Krishnani of Fox Star Studios, " Quick Gun Murugun is a quirky

sambhar' comedy. We are doing all unusual activities. The film promotes

the importance of vegetarian food, we thought it would be a good idea to

make Prasad promote vegetarianism by making this south Indian delicacy

of a size never made before. "

 

Quick Gun Murugan, the protagonist, is a cowboy fighting for the virtues

of vegetarian food while the villain advocates non-vegetarian dishes.

This film is a satire on the war between veg and non-veg food enthusiasts.

 

" We are going to break our own previous record of 30-feet dosa'. We will

make a 31-feet dosa' on Wednesday at our SG Road outlet. The dosa' will

be known as Quick Gun Murugun dosa'. Quick Gun Murugan is a south Indian

cowboy who aims to make the world vegetarian. We are also a south Indian

restaurant with a pure-veg motto, " says Jolly Christian, general

manager, Sankalp.

 

Quick Gun Murugan' is produced by Fox Star Studios which had distributed

the Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire'. The film is scheduled for an

August 28 release.
