This study aims to explore the purposes of street art and its ability to bridge cultural, generational, and ideological divides by transforming the public realm of Delhi. The finding reveals how street art acts as a dynamic platform for dialogue between diverse community groups, fostering a shared sense of cultural identity while addressing pressing social and political issues such as inequality, gender, and environmental concerns. Moreover, it explores several forms of street art through the eyes of the urban audience, aiming to develop an understanding of how individuals engage with and respond to this art and facilitating the exchange of ideas between younger, mid and older generations. Using a mixed-method approach, the research combines qualitative techniques such as interviews with quantitative techniques, data was collected through spontaneous conversations conducted while walking through the art district, as well as published journals and books. The study’s focus on Delhi’s diverse cultural settings contributes to a better understanding of public art's transformational potential in fostering conversation, solidarity, and civic engagement. These results highlight the significance of street art not only as an aesthetic form but as an essential tool for urban regeneration and social change in urban Indian society.
