"I will file my nomination paper for the post of President of India at New Delhi on June 26," Rishi said.

70-year-old Rishi claims that he has tattoos of flags of over 200 countries, 185 country maps, 165 mini flags and 2,985 characters.

Whichever party supports me for filing nomination papers for the President post, I will make the tattoos of the party on my body, said Rishi.

He claims he has 22 Guiness World book records, that includes making the longest will in the world - a whopping 489 pages, delivering a pizza from New Delhi to San Francisco, and, of course, carrying the highest number of tattoos on his body.

 

"I want to be remembered after I die, So I want a museum to preserve my body," Rishi said.

"In fact, I am donating my body to the Ripley's Believe It Or Not museum, so that they preserve it and put in on display," he said.

While his forehead, head, arms, legs and chest are covered with tattoos, his back remains clear.

"I am saving that for a dream project," said Rishi. "It's going to be the hall of fame for world record holding tattoo artists. I will have all their names and achievements tattooed on my back," he said.
