The energized young children clustered together to set an all new record of ‘largest glass of milkshake’ which was 5.5ft tall with 500 liters of Horlicks milkshake. The Guinness team confirmed that the record was set and it put India on the world map for this achievement. As part of the record, the activity also saw 2000 children enjoying (consuming) a glass of chilled Horlicks milkshake. 

Commenting on the children’s’ achievement, Mr. Vikram Bahl, Area Marketing Lead, Nutrition & Digestive health, GSK Consumer Healthcare India said, “We are extremely overwhelmed with the participation that the activity witnessed and excited that we have set a new world record. Horlicks has been India’s most revered Health Food Drink and come this summer, we wanted to reach out to children in the most engaging of ways with the chilled offering of Chocolate Delight and Royal Kesar Badam flavors.
