Your heatsink is due for cleaning. Before doing the cleaning, make sure you have a good quality thermal grease with you so that you can reapply the same on CPU and GPU.

This is very high temp. But, SpeedFan cannot be trusted. Use HwInfo for readings and post screenshot.

^ Agreed
Use HWInfo for monitoring & if the readings are correct then call a fire brigade :-D

Lol, as other people said this is too high, ideally temps in your case should be in the range of 45-55 degrees

Do you guys recommend i open it up myself ? I downloaded some "how to" videos and it all seems very lengthy and cumbersome. But then i read that HP charges Rs1400 just to open the back, repair cost extra....

Yes, you should do it yourself. You'll learn it some day or the another.

Please check using this tool: HWiNFO, HWiNFO32 & HWiNFO64 - Hardware Information and Analysis Tools and report. There are a lot more sensors in your laptop than what's being reported.
