Jyoti Amge celebrates after gaining the title of the shortest woman in the world in Nagpur, India (AP)
A student in central India who has been recognised as the world's shortest woman by Guinness World Records said she hopes to earn a degree and make it in Bollywood.
Jyoti Amge, who turned 18 on Friday, stood just 62.8cm tall - shorter than the average two-year-old - when Guinness representatives measured her at a ceremony attended by about 30 relatives and friends in the town of Nagpur, Maharashtra state.
A tearful Ms Amge, dressed in one of her finest saris, called the honour an "extra birthday present" and said she felt grateful for being small as it had brought her recognition. After receiving a plaque, she and her guests cut a birthday cake.
