Steve Jobs once said dots always connect in the back but in today's age of social media, dots connect in all three tenses and dimensions.
Something similar happened with Noor Jahan when a video showcasing her talent of drawing 15 pictures together went viral and caught the eye of tech giant Anand Mahindra who is well known for his philanthropic work.
The video shows Noor Jahan drawing the portraits of 15 freedom fighters together, which is said to have become a part of the Guinness Book of Records.
There is also an ongoing debate on social media about whether this is a fact or a myth. Irrespective of all this the tech giant Anand Mahindra has offered a scholarship to the 'miracle' artist Noorjahan.
He took to Twitter to share his amazement, he tweeted, " How is that possible? She's clearly a talented artist. But to paint 15 portraits at once is more than art - it's a miracle!" He further asked if anyone knew Noor in person as he'd be more than happy to offer her financial aid and scholarship Is there anyone close to them who can confirm Noor Jahan's feat? If true, it should be encouraged and I would be happy to provide scholarships and other forms of support.
How is this even possible?? Clearly she’s a talented artist. But to paint 15 portraits at once is more than art—it’s a miracle! Anyone located near her who can confirm this feat? If valid, she must be encouraged & I’d be pleased to provide a scholarship & other forms of support. pic.twitter.com/5fha3TneJi

Note that so many portraits at once are only possible when the neocortex of the artist's brain is as precisely engaged with mathematics and physics as with a complex robotic apparatus (isometric) and in limited spaces, each with colors and with a separate set of graphic elements. There have been several claims that Noor Jahan has secured her name in the Guinness Book of World Records, but there seems to be no official confirmation of this.
A YouTube user wrote: "I have cross-checked the name in Guinness World Records but no such name was found." Many are also questioning the authenticity of the video that shows the artist creating 15 paintings simultaneously.

Another person wrote, "What's even more surprising is the number of people who believe it's true. Another wrote, "Wow, what editing." "It's not talent. It's a fraud. No one can achieve what's not physically possible. The best pictures are already there and covered up and she's exposing them all at once," another user wrote.
