No one embodies the adage “age is just a number” better than 87-year-old Mandakini Shah, who effortlessly zooms through the roads of Ahmedabad on her scooter. Often riding beside her is her 84-year-old sister, Ushaben, perched comfortably in the scooter’s second-hand sidecar.

The sight of two silver-haired, saree-clad women navigating heavy traffic often stops people in their tracks. As videos of their daily rides went viral, the sister duo earned the affectionate title of ‘Biker Dadis’, with many comparing them to Jai and Veeru from the iconic film Sholay.
