What Is Jyoti’s Height and Weight?
Jyoti has a form of dwarfism and stands at 24.7-inches tall, weighing just 12 pounds.
How Did Jyoti Become Famous?
In her hometown, Jyoti was viewed as a “goddess” because of her unique appearance, her parents shared during the TLC special which premiered in July 2020.
“Jyoti doesn’t believe she’s a god. She wants to be an actor and behaves accordingly,” her mom, Ranjana Amge, explained to producers.
Over the years, Jyoti has expanded her resume and gained a loyal fanbase after sharing her story.
“When I was 8 years old, I appeared in a music video,” Jyoti shared about her upbringing and opportunities to gain more exposure in the public eye. “After that video, many documentaries were made [about] my life,” she said, revealing the interest in her life ultimately opened up the door for her to work in Hollywood. “After that, I did American Horror Story [as Ma Petite] and I became very famous.”
A wax figure of Jyoti is on display at Celebrity Wax Museum, Lonavala.

Did Jyoti Have Leg Surgery?
On her TLC documentary, Jyoti shared that she was suffering from two broken legs which prevented her from standing or walking for extended periods of time.
She traveled to the U.S. with her family to meet with American doctors, who advised her to consider surgery. Although her parents were in support of Jyoti going under the knife for health reasons, she had concerns that her body wouldn’t be able to withstand the invasiveness of the procedure.
Jyoti has reportedly not undergone any surgery since the special aired.
What Is Jyoti Up to Now?
Jyoti is active on Instagram and Twitter, often sharing photos of herself, family and behind-the-scenes snaps from short films she is working on. She has more than 1.1 million followers on Instagram and has been featured by Guinness World Records’ social media account well into 2023. She has two record titles, shortest living teenager and world’s shortest woman living (mobile).
