MUMBAI: Actor and fitness enthusiast Milind Soman highlighted the power of active ageing as he called on grandmothers to break long-standing stereotypes through fitness and participation.
Emphasizing that life does not have to slow down with age, the ‘Paurashpur‘ actor shared how seeing older women stay active can inspire not just their peers but also younger generations to rethink what growing old truly looks like. In an exclusive quote shared with IANS, Milind expressed, “There’s this stereotype that grandmothers sit at home, making dough or knitting. We want to break this stereotype and also encourage grandmothers to live more active lives by inspiring them through each other.”
“Just because you’re over 60 or 70 doesn’t mean life has to slow down. You can still participate in events, represent your country, and do whatever you want. This event isn’t just for grandmothers, it’s also for those watching them. We want younger people to see this and say, this is how I want to grow old, ” he added.
