Five Uber Cool Seniors On Instagram We Absolutely Love

It’s not just the millennials who have huge Instagram following. These five super cool seniors on Instagram are rocking their accounts too!


Neena Gupta

You have to hand it over to Neena Gupta, 60, actor par excellence and redefining bold since she became a single mom by choice to daughter Masaba way back in 1989. Gupta recently made heads turn with her performance as an older woman dealing with pregnancy and the society around her in the 2018 comedy grosser ‘Badhai Ho.’ Her Insta account is hugely popular with 2,65,000 followers and more and reflects Gupta’s bindaas style, whether dressed in casual travel shorts, kaftans or something designed by her daughter.

Neetu Kapoor

Now 60, the super popular actress from 70s & 80s is all about family and friends now and never short on style on her Insta account with 9,00,000+ follows. Whether it is hanging out with her grandkids or sharing some space with husband Rishi Kapoor, whom she accompanied to New York for treatment recently, the super fit and stylish Neetu Singh Kapoor’s Insta account is filled with family and friends and the occasional dose of keeping it real and humorous.

Chinna Dua

Her sar(i)torial style is to die for and any self-confessed saree lover would be thrilled to get their hand on her wardrobe. Dr Padmavati Dua may be better known as the mother of comedienne Mallika Dua and wife of senior journalist Vinod Dua but she is a radiologist by profession and passionate about sarees. Her Instagram account with 20,000 + followers is a crash course in sarees across India and how to accessorise them just right. If you love sarees and like to know their origin and limitless styling possibilities, this graceful lady’s account is a must-not-miss.

 

Nafisa Ali

Few people radiate the joie de vivre actor and former swimmer Nafisa Ali exudes. Her 43,500 followers think so too. Even while undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer, Ali’s Insta account was a mix of positive reflections, gratitude and love. She shared her journey with courage, compassion and by being utterly transparent about her treatment. Recently, Ali said she was ready to work. If that isn’t courage and determination to go on no matter what, we don’t know what is.

Tao Porchon Lynch

The next time your teenage grandchild is flexing about his Instagram followers, gently show him American Yoga teacher Tao Porchon Lynch, who has 23,000 followers at the grand old age of 100. The centenarian can still bend it better than anyone too. A ballroom dancer and Yoga teacher of French and Manipuri descent, Porchon-Lynch’s timeline is an inspiration for healthy and active living and a proof that exercise and a bright attitude towards life never hurt anyone.
