World's shortest teenager in Nadanthathu Enna
In Nadanthathu Enna Kuttramum Pinnaniyum, this week, Jyothi Amge, who hails from Nagpur, shares her problems. At 16, she is the world's shortest teenager. She weighs only 5 kg and her height is 23.5 inches. Besides her short stature, Jyothi struggles with two fractured legs, the result of a recent accident.
But all these have not dampened her spirits. She has taken problems in her stride and has approached life with a positive outlook. What's more, the people of Nagpur invite her to weddings and seek her advice on various issues. There was documentary films on her in Discover India program in Discovery channel..I have seen that few times and it looks really pity on her.
