Smallest girl in the world

Jyoti is smaller than the average two-year-old child

She has a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia and won't grow any taller than her current
height.

Due to her size, Jyoti has to have clothes and jewellery made for her. She sleeps in a tiny bed and
uses special plates and cutlery to eat, as normal-sized utensils are too big.

Despite this, she goes to a regular school in Nagpur, central India, where she has her own small
desk and chair, and her classmates treat her like any other student.

Jyoti also shares common interests with other teenagers, with a love for DVDs and fashionable
dresses.

She said: 'I am proud of being small. I love all the attention I get. I'm not scared of being small
and I don't regret it.

'I'm just the same as other people. I eat like you, dream like you. I don't feel any different.'

Jyoti is treated like a mini-celebrity in her home town, where people flock to meet her and some
even treat her like a goddess.

She will even be releasing an album with her favourite Indian pop star, the bhangra/rap star Mika
Singh.

Her mum, Ranjana Amge, 45, said: 'When Jyoti was born, she seemed quite normal. We came to
know about her disorder when she was five.

'We consulted a specialist and he said she will be this size all of her life. Jyoti is small, yet cute,
and we love her very much.'

Jyoti is ambitious and hopes to work as a Bollywood actress one day.

She said: 'I would love to work in a big city like Mumbai, act in films and travel to London and
America.

'I'm proud of being small. I love all the attention I get because of it.'

Her dad, Kishanji Amge, 52, said: 'I can't separate myself from her even for a single day. I love
her very much.

'She makes me proud. Lots of gurus come to see and bless her. They pray for her happiness and
long life.'
