Shivaji portrait made from plastic sets world record

A Mumbai-based animation artist has made a record by making a mosaic portrait of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj on the occasion of his birth anniversary as per the Hindu calendar in Mumbai’s Andheri here.

Nitin Dinesh Kamble, who works as a high-tech animation during a private company, created the 10X8 feet portrait in 10 days using 46,080 plastic bits of six different colours.

“I have made a portrait of Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaj. I even have used 46,080 plastic bits to form it. In India, there’s a ban on plastic but there’s not tons we will do about the plastic that’s already within the market,” Kamble told ANI on Wednesday when asked about the inspiration behind the portrait.
