Both Mr. Sabharwal and Mr. Anandapadmanabhan also explained how senior living is changing and what kind of amenities are being provided. “From building a network of doctors, guiding senior citizens on insurance, providing fitness and Ayurveda facilities within the premises and even setting up mini theatres, a lot of effort is going into this segment,” the duo said.
