The first portrait in zero-gravity

A 27-year-old girl Ankita Joshi becomes the first woman in the world to paint in zero-gravity and Salman Khan happens to be the first personality being painted in space.


Salman Khan has often made paintings of his close industry friends and gifted it to them. But for a change here is a woman who has painted Salman Khan. And this is no common painting since it has been done in space in zero-gravity under conditions which are far from human.

She painted Salman -- as Chulbul Pandey -- within two eight-second trajectories above Florida, USA, on March 27. Now she plans to gift the painting to the actor.

Ankita flew in a Rockwell Commander aircraft along with a doctor, under the supervision of space agency NASA. The aircraft nosedived to create zero-gravity conditions for about four minutes, when she painted. "I was able to experience the void of gravity, not just physically, but mentally, emotionally and even spiritually. I painted series of canvases," she said.
