This landmark collaboration signals a paradigm shift: for the first time, MMR will house a thoughtfully designed, world-class senior living community right within its urban fabric — close to families, friends, and support systems.
Meeting Evolving Needs Across Life Stages
For Dosti Realty, this initiative reflects a larger vision: modern townships must evolve with residents across every stage of life. Housing needs change from the early years of home ownership, to family-centric residences, and finally to senior living that balances independence with personalized care.
The Urgency of Now
The timing makes this especially relevant. JLL India, the transaction advisor to this partnership, recently released a report with ASLI projecting that India’s senior community will more than double, from 162.2 million in 2025 to over 346 million by 2050. This demographic shift underscores the need for communities that go beyond safety and care to deliver vibrancy, independence, and quality of life.
Leadership Voices
Deepak Goradia, Chairman & Managing Director of Dosti Realty, stated, “We believe that true community living embraces every generation. With Dosti Primus, we’re creating a space where seniors don’t just live securely – they live meaningfully, with comfort, care, and connection at the heart of it.”
Anuj Goradia, Director of Dosti Realty, added, “At Dosti Realty, we’ve always believed that great communities evolve with the people who live in them. With Dosti Primus, we’re not just introducing a new project — we’re shaping a new way of living for Mumbaikars. Senior living has long been seen as a niche; we see it as the next natural chapter in urban life. Dosti Primus brings together comfort, care, and connection in a way that lets seniors live independently, joyfully, and close to everything they hold dear. For us, this is more than real estate — it’s about redefining how cities like Mumbai care for those who built them.”
Adarsh Narahari, Founder & Managing Director of Primus, commented, “At Primus, we have been able to increase healthspan and reduce the pace of aging for elders across the various cities where we are present. We are very excited to now bring this solution to Mumbai and help the elders of this city lead more joyous, active, and purposeful lives.”
Karan Singh Sodi, Senior Managing Director, MMR & Head – Alternatives, JLL India, noted, “The national penetration rate for organized senior living remains low at 1.4% of the addressable market – compared to mature markets such as the US (6-7%) and New Zealand (14-15%). This underscores the vast, untapped potential that defines the Indian landscape.”
Redefining Senior Living in MMR
Set within Dosti’s flagship township in MMR, the residences will mark a first for the region — redefining the way people see senior living. Until now, such communities have largely been built outside MMR, away from families and familiar networks. This development changes that – seniors can now enjoy world-class facilities while staying easily connected to friends and family within MMR.
Residences will feature:
- Senior-friendly design: anti-skid flooring, grab bars, zero-threshold entries, emergency response systems.
- Chef-prepared meals and nutrition programs.
- Wellness and fitness programs tailored to elders.
- On-campus healthcare and emergency readiness.
- Concierge services for daily convenience.
- A rich calendar of cultural, social, and intellectual events.
This partnership shifts the narrative of ageing in India — from dependency and decline to active lifestyles, holistic well-being, and dignified independence.
