Tiny Teen from India is the Smallest Girl in the World

June 11 2009 07:00 PST

India's smallest girl stands next to bucketsFifteen year old Jyoti Amge is just like your average teenage girl. She has a fond admiration for beautiful dresses, and watching movies of her favorite Bollywood stars. However, Jyoti is quite unique as she stands at 1 ft 11 inches (58 cm).

Jyoti was born with a disorder called achondroplasia and won't grow any taller than her current height. She is so small that she has to have clothes and jewelry made for her and eats from special plates and silverware because normal sizes are far too big for her to use.

Jyoti's mom, Ranjana Amge said, "When Jyoti was born, she seemed quite normal. We came to know about her disorder when she was five."

Jyoti attends regular school in Nagpur, Central India, and has her own small desk and chair. There, she is treated like a mini-celeb by her fellow classmates who treat her no different than anyone else.

You'd think her size would deter her spirits but you would be wrong, in fact she is rather proud of her height. "I'm just the same as other people. I eat like you, dream like you. I don't feel any different," says Jyoti.

This adorable girl certainly has big aspirations as she wants to follow in the steps of some of her favorite movie stars and be a Bollywood actress herself.  Right now, she is releasing an album with her favorite Indian pop star, Mika Singh!  It looks like Jyoti is well on her way to following her dreams, staying positive in every sense.

What do you guys think about the little girl with the big dreams? Leave your comments and words of inspiration for Jyoti below.
