Kamareddy: Ever heard of blowing air through ears? Well, then one must meet this man from Kamareddy district.

Fakir Pasha from Yellareddy mandal headquarters will do this feat. He can inflate a balloon by blowing air from his ear. He performed this feat at various TV entertainment channels at national level and during festivals in the district.

Fakir said that he got this idea of inflating balloons using ears when he was a child. In his words, "Water used to enter into my ears while swimming. I will take long and deep breathes with nose and send the air to the ear and the water will come out easily. Then I got an idea why not fill balloons in the same procedure and tried it."

Fakir said that he became perfect after practicing for a few days and able to fill a balloon of 90 cm long in three minutes. 'My friends started calling me Balloon Pasha,' he laughingly said.

He said that he has been exhibiting his skill for the past 15 years, since my seventh class. Blowing air from ears is not easy, it needs a lot of practice. Fakir said he needs encouragement and proper platform to become proficient in this art and to grow further.

In 2012, Punjab University honoured Fakir Pasha with the unique world record Award. Telangana government also gave an award to his skill. Pasha has not enrolled as an artiste. As a television artist, he is getting Rs 15,000 per month. He hoped that his name will get registered in Guinness Book of Records.
