Recently, actor-director Guinness Ajayan aka Pakru had posted a message to cheer up Quaden Bayles, the 9-year-old-boy from Australia who was bullied by his classmates due to his dwarfism, through social media. He wrote, “Dear son, I also cried once like you. But that tears were the fuel that motivated me to reach heights. When you cry, your mother will be defeated. Remember these lines, no one can douse the fire on the furnace and the fire in you. I dedicate this note for all those who are going through similar situations.

Looks like Pakru's message has reached the little kid who has now expressed his wish to meet the actor. In a recent interaction with Australian media SBS, Quaden's mother Yarakka Bayles represented him and revealed his son’s wish to meet Guinness Pakru. Yarakka also said that Quaden wants to become an actor like Pakru, who also suffers from dwarfism like her son.

Pakru, with a height of 76 centimeters, entered the pages of the Guinness Book of World records for being the shortest actor to play a lead character in a full-length movie and for being the shortest film director in the world to direct a full-length movie.

The nine-year-old Quaden made headlines after a video went viral showing the boy crying expressing his thoughts of self-harming, after being subject to body shaming due to his dwarfism. The video which was shared by his mom was viral on social media and it was then a sea of good-hearted people rallied extending their support to the little boy.
