Guinness names boy, 7, as world's youngest director

The tiny landlocked Himalayan country of Nepal has notched a Guinness World Record as Saugat Bista became the world's youngest movie director at the age of seven.

Born in January 2007, Saugat's full-length directorial debut, Love You Baba, was released on Dec 12, when he was only 7 years and 340 days old.

Nepal's film wizard has replaced former record-holder Kishan Srikanth of India, who directed a movie, Footpath, in 2006, aged 9.
