She started on Thursday, May 11 and by the early hours of Monday 15, had equalled and surpassed the former record of 87 hours 45 minutes set by an Indian Lady, Lata Tondon.

Hilda Baci surpassed the 96-hour target and has now achieved a 100-hour record time.

She began cooking, cooking and cooking. People cheered, people came to support and of course, you will also see negative people who condemned the act and questioned why she was doing it.
