Congratulating the family on the achievement, Deputy Commissioner Apneet Riyait said it was an impressive start of Aarohi since the beginning to get acclaimed in the India Book of Records at such a tender age. She said under the slogan of the organisation ‘extraordinary feat, extraordinary people’, Aarohi had made her parents, district and state proud with unique qualities. She congratulated Aarohi’s father Vivek Mahajan, mother Meenakshi Mahajan and grandmother Radha Gupta for the achievement and wished the little girl a great success in the future as well.

Father of Aarohi Vivek Mahajan, who is doctorate in Music from Delhi University & singer, said he has been in this profession for quite long and his daughter has also developed a special passion for music.
