An exclusive platform celebrating creativity, connection, and community for the 55+ age group
Get ready, Mumbai! A heartwarming and one-of-a-kind event is making its way to the city’s vibrant cultural scene. GenS Life in collaboration with Dowith Lit presents ‘Suno Sunao Sunday Manao’, the city’s first-ever curated open mic designed exclusively for seniors aged 55 and above. Taking place on Sunday, May 18, 2025, at Jashn Studio, Khar (West), this unique event promises an evening full of talent, stories, and soul.
Set against the cultural backdrop of Mumbai’s vibrant Bandra neighborhood, Suno Sunao Sunday Manao aims to reimagine aging through the power of creative expression. Attendees will witness an evening of soulful performances, humorous stand-up acts, poetry recitals, and personal storytelling—all delivered by senior citizens who are ready to take center stage and share their journeys.
Speaking about the initiative, Meenakshi Menon, Founder of GenS Life, said, “Suno Sunao Sunday Manao’ is designed to be more than just an event; it’s a catalyst for connection. Through it, we aim to cultivate a vibrant community where seniors feel empowered to share their stories, forge meaningful bonds, and rediscover the joy of collective experience. This initiative is integral to GenS Life’s broader mission: to create pathways and opportunities that enable seniors to express themselves authentically and build strong, supportive connections within their community.”
Dowith Lit, known for its innovative arts programming and grassroots engagement, brings a distinctive cultural sensibility to the event. The collaboration aims to bridge generational gaps and provide seniors with a stage that values both legacy and individuality. Beyond entertainment, the initiative serves a deeper purpose—fostering community and combating social isolation among India’s growing senior population, which now exceeds 150 million. The event underscores GenS Life’s ongoing mission to create inclusive, engaging spaces for seniors across urban India.
