We started the Silver Talkies Club in 2018 with 17 pioneer members from Bengaluru.
Our idea? To create a safe space for older adults, where they enjoyed
and felt belonged, supported by their tribe. Today we are in 11
different cities with hundreds of members and more joining by the day! Silver Talkies Club is India’s first virtual exclusive social club for older adults. It is part of our mission to create a society of happy, active and empowered older citizens.
Join us to make an impact and help us build a strong community of older adults who are #RethinkAgeing.

The Silver Talkies logo represents exploration, flexibility (Bird) with a sense of nurturing & care (Hand). The small arched back bird in the logo represents that the brand is not rigid, but rather fluid.
The bird flying into the hand represents how Silver Talkies serves as a safe space for older adults to ENGAGE, EXPERIENCE & EMPOWER, as they age. Silver Talkies acts as a catalyst in encouraging our silver members to dream big, follow their passion, explore endless opportunities and fly high.
