It narrowly beats out the Orlando StarFlyer, which, until recently, held the top spot at 450-feet tall.

The ride will be just one of nine new action-packed offerings at the theme park. Other attractions include:

> A 55-metre ferris wheel called Wheel of Stars

> An 88-metre rollercoaster called Taxi No. 1, inspired by Mumbai’s famous yellow-black cabs

> Rodeo Ki Sawari, a thrilling family ride with triple spinning action inspired by the traditional Indian Rodeo experience

> Hawa Hawai, a colourful family ride that simulates the sense of flying on a hang glider

> Abraa Ka Dabraa, a mystical swinging Abra ride

> Mansoon Masti, a family attraction that will take riders on a twirling and whirling monsoon adventure

> Tanga No. 13, which will take riders on a magical trip around the Gateway of India in ornately-decorated horse-drawn carriages

> Rocket simulator, a space-shuttle themed tower ride for children
