Pioneering Later Life with Dignity and Purpose.
Kewal Kapoor
Visionary Founder & Social Entrepreneur
Kewal Kapoor, visionary founder of Return of The Million Smiles, conceived this groundbreaking project in 2015 after extensive research and deep reflection inspired by his father's profound words:
"One parent can raise six children, but six children can't care for one parent."
A passionate social entrepreneur, Kewal advocates against old age homes as inhuman institutions unless medically essential. His mission is rooted in the belief that every elder deserves dignity, love, and the warmth of family in their later years.
In the first phase of his initiative, Kewal successfully gathered 10,000 pledges, contributing significantly to India's Second Life Policy. His work has been featured in numerous podcasts and YouTube interviews, where he masterfully fuses spirituality with practical advocacy to inspire meaningful change.
Through Return of The Million Smiles, Kewal continues to challenge societal norms and build a movement that honors our elders and strengthens intergenerational bonds.
