Exclusive - Dipshikkha Nagppal Urges Action on World Environment Day: Why can't we just keep our cities clean?

Time of India05-06-2025
Actress Dipshikkha Nagppal is known for her strong on-screen presence, but on
World Environment Day
, her voice takes on a different role — one of concern, urgency, and hope.
Reflecting on the changing climate, Dipshikkha shares how deeply disconnected today's seasons feel compared to her childhood.
'Yes, it's so strange. So many years have passed since those childhood monsoons in May, July, and August.
Now, everything has gone completely haywire. We can't plan anything anymore — the weather is just so unpredictable,' she says.
Her concern isn't just about the weather; it's about the larger environment we are building — or destroying — around us. 'We're living in a concrete jungle. And while I don't mind development — cities growing, buildings becoming beautiful — at the same time, if we don't act responsibly, we'll be finished.'
Dipshikkha questions why basic civic sense still seems so out of reach for many. 'Why can't our cities be clean? Why can't we follow basic manners — like disposing of garbage properly, using dustbins, saving water? These are such basic things. We've been talking about them for years.'
Her message is clear and inclusive. 'As individuals, as citizens, we need to understand and take responsibility. Whether it's celebrities, politicians, or just us standing at our own gates — we all need to do our bit.'

With sincerity and urgency, she calls for collective responsibility. 'Please, we can do this. Everyone should do this. I think it's high time people truly understood the seriousness of this. Otherwise, we'll be left with nothing — no greenery, no clean air, nothing.'
Dipshikkha ends with a heartfelt plea that goes beyond a headline: 'You know what I'm trying to say. Put it into your own words if you must. But just make sure this message gets through. Please, let's take action.'
In a world flooded with voices, hers is one rooted in reality — a reminder that the smallest actions, when taken together, can lead to real change.

Last Updated: Shashi Tharoor is known for his complex messages that often leave people scratching their heads, but this time, it was Shah Rukh Khan who surprised everyone.

Tharoor usually writes complex messages that make many Indians scratch their heads in confusion. But this time, he kept it short and simple while congratulating Khan on winning his first National Award. However, it was King Khan who surprised everyone with his reply after he used words like 'magniloquent and sesquipedalian." This clever response left fans both laughing and scrambling to look up the meanings. After Khan's National Award win was announced, Tharoor, taking to X (Formerly Twitter), wrote, 'A National Treasure wins a National Award! Congratulations." Soon after Shashi Tharoor's post went viral, it was Shah Rukh Khan's witty reply that left everyone in splits. The Bollywood superstar wrote, 'Thank you for the simple praise Mr Tharoor, would not have understood something more magniloquent and sesquipedalian." Thank u for the simple praise Mr Tharoor… would not have understood something more magniloquent and sesquipedalian… ha ha — Shah Rukh Khan (@iamsrk) August 3, 2025 If you're someone trying to find the word in a dictionary, we've got you covered. According to the Oxford Dictionary, 'Magniloquent' means using high-flown or bombastic language, while 'Sesquipedalian' refers to words that are long or have many syllables. Shah Rukh Khan's Speech After the announcement of his win, Shah Rukh Khan shared a heartfelt video message on Instagram, calling the National Award a defining moment in his life, one he will cherish forever. He expressed gratitude to the award jury, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, and most importantly, his fans for their unwavering support.

Ranbir Kapoor's Animal Accused Of 'Copying' Akshay Kumar's Jaanwar: 'Uss Director Ki...'

Last Updated: Jaanwar stars Akshay Kumar and was released in 1999. On the other hand, Ranbir Kapoor's Animal was released in theatres in December 2023. Ranbir Kapoor's Animal has been accused of copying Akshay Kumar's Jaanwar. In a recent interview, the director of the 1999 movie Suneel Darshan accused Sandeep Reddy Vanga of copying his film. He argued that even though Vanga did his job brilliantly, it would have been better if he had acknowledged that he was taking reference from Jaanwar. 'Main kaise banaun? Meri filmon ki nakal itne log kar chuke hain. Ek film hai Jaanwar. Jaanwar ka English kya hota hai? Uski kahaani kaunsi hai? Aapne Animal dekhi hai na? Aapko pata hai na kaunsi kahaani hai? Lekin main claim nahi karta, kyunki us director ki treatment bahut anokhi thi, aur bahut achhe tareeke se usne us film ko treat kiya. But if the producer had acknowledged the truth, it would have been much better," Darshan told Bollywood Bubble when asked if he wants to remake any of his films. 'I thought it was better to stay silent, because somehow, there have been other films like this too, and they've been massive hits. I feel like I'm inspiring people. My cinema is continuing to inspire them, and those films are becoming huge blockbusters. There's one hero, a very big star, who also did a film that's very, very similar to mine. And the writer from whom they bought the story is also a very big name. That film too was a massive hit. So if you see the film, it's strangely very similar to my film," the director added. For the unversed, Jaanwar tells the story of Babu, played by Akshay Kumar, a young orphan who falls under the influence of a notorious gangster and becomes a feared criminal. However, after a life-altering tragedy, Babu turns his life around, adopts an abandoned child, and strives to raise him with love, honesty, and integrity. The film explores Babu's journey of redemption, the transformative power of fatherhood, and the challenges of overcoming a violent past. On the other hand, Animal was released in theatres in December 2023. The film, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna in the lead, revolves around a man and his toxic relationship with his father. The film shows Vijay (played by Ranbir) as an anti-hero who would go to any lengths to protect his father, including gunning down 200 people with a machine gun. However, despite his efforts, he struggles to get a seal of approval from his emotionally unavailable father (played by Anil Kapoor). Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
