Morning walkers on the Worli Promenade will be in for a skip-happy surprise this Sunday. A ‘skipathon’ pop-up by Skip Revolution will give Mumbaikars five minutes to skip rope and prove their mettle. “We hope the quick session motivates people to get serious about fitness,” shared co-founder Jagannath Shetkar. Those keen to hop on the challenge can log on to @skip_revolution_club.
Age-old tunes
Pravin Doshi rehearses for the show
This club is not easy to get into,” quipped Kishore Parulekar, senior member of the Humming Birds. The 65-year-old will be among the performers taking stage at the Mysore Association Hall in King Circle, Matunga tomorrow for a musical evening. Titled Dil Chahta Hai, the event will see senior citizens from the age of 60 to 80 years, take the stage, putting on a musical performance. 80-year-old Pravin Doshi has been preparing for the last month, and shared, “At 80, when many believe life should slow down, singing gives me renewed energy and purpose.” Well, having met every Sunday since 2014, the group is certainly prepared. “It is a long wait if you want to sign up,” warned Parulekar, with a chuckle.
