A group of at least 1,151 people in Bangladesh have taken a selfie together with their Nokia Lumia 730 smartphone — making it one of the gigantic selfies fit to become the world’s largest selfie.

The five megapixel mid-range Windows Phone found a smart way to advertise its front-facing camera and asked people to come for the self-portrait. Posted on the Facebook page of Microsoft Lumia Bangladesh, the photo apparently required people to sign up to keep a track of how many were there.

Ellen DeGeneres’ Oscar selfie is still on top with 3.37 million retweets and 2.01 favourites but the Lumia photo could claim a record for the largest number of people in a selfie.

The record is yet to be confirmed by Guinness World.
