Rachit - The Rubic Star

 Rachhit Kalra a young child of only 3 years and 4 months has become the youngest (Rubik's) Cuber of India. He has solved 3 kinds of cubes - the 3 x 3 x 3, 2 x 2 x 2 and the Pyraminx. The record was witnessed and accorded by Board members of Indian Cube Association (ICA) who specially travelled from Vapi for this event. The event was held at the Kalra residence in Chembur, Mumbai. An interesting fact as per the chairman of the ICA in that approximately only 0.01% of the world population are able to solve the Rubik's Cube. Proud mother Mrs. Prerna Kalra along with his teacher Mrs. Poonam Vadhavan have been training him from one and half months. Earlier this month Rachhit had travelled with his mother to Delhi for 10 days to learn with his teacher who is Delhi based and also successfully participated in the Guinness Book of Records event for largest number of people solving Rubik's 3 x 3 x 3 cube on a virtual platform. There too he was the youngest member to participate in the event. The family was extremely motivated when his teacher came down to Mumbai witness this record breaking event. Since Covid began, Rachhit's parents have been developing his interests on intellectual side and were amazed when he showed interest in the Cube and learnt it just about a months time. Parents will be supporting him in his activities with different types of cubes and hope that in time he becomes the fastest cube solver. Apart from solving the cube, Rachhit loves to dance, paint, sing, play football, recite mantras and identify different countries flags / brand logos.
