Happy Streets is all about fun and togetherness: Dipshikkha Nagppal

Happy Streets, an initiative by The Times of India, returned to Chembur on February 1 once again, turning RCF Road, near Chandak Highscape City into a lively, vehicle-free community space. The initiative brought together residents across age groups for a morning of fitness, art and shared experiences, reinforcing the idea of streets as inclusive public spaces meant for people.

Actress Dipshikkha Nagppal joined the celebrations and participated in the activities. She danced with the crowd during the Zumba session, cheering and motivating participants. She said, “When we were growing up, there were no such activities. At Happy Streets, Sundays come alive with fun and togetherness. This is a great initiative. I had a lot of fun.”

I envy everyone who gets to have such fun on Sunday mornings. Happy Streets is a great initiative and I’m glad I experienced all the fun and camaraderie between the participants— Dipshikkha Nagppal

Ramesh Kulkarni (68), a long-time Chembur resident, who attended the laughter club, said, “Laughing openly with so many people early in the morning felt refreshing. It reminded me how simple joy can bring everyone together. I truly enjoyed myself.”

From exciting games to music, pottery and Zumba sessions, the initiative saw the street transform.Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
