Ever since Seniors Today launched in July 2019, we have been a lot more than just self-help content and nostalgia. We’re are an e-magazine, a buzzy website with many other digitally-led properties. We have painstakingly achieved the status of being India’s #1 Destination for Senior Citizens.
A few months back, we decided to make this list of the 50 Most Influential Seniors. Doing a list is fun. Though often thankless. But once he had the filters ready, it was simple.
So we were only looking at people above 60 years of age, as on January 1, 2021. We were looking at people who we believe had a significant influence on not just their own industry in general but the world at large. And, yes, we didn’t consider politicians and those in government.
Senior citizens make up an increasing percentage of the population. One in every 10 Indians is a senior citizen, and this percentage is increasing, bringing its own challenges. Seniors can often feel lonely or confused because of health problems, or being separated from family.
