Hip Hip Hurray was certainly a favourite show in the 90s! Remember its star cast? Here’s how Vishal Malhotra, Kishwer Merchant and other actors look today.

The ’90s was without a doubt, the golden era of Indian Television, and if you are a ’90s kid we’re sure you get nostalgic at times, reminiscing the good old days. Out of all the amazing shows we had back then, Hip Hip Hurray was one of the most loved ones. This gem of a show is still regarded as one of the cult classics in Indian Television history. The story of the show revolved around a group of 12th graders from DeNobili High School and dealt with actual issues that teenagers face such as peer pressure, relationships, exam stress, drug abuse, career confusions, health issues, and more.
