Women’s Web is saying Goodbye! Please make sure you read this important notification.
Take a look at these Granny videos. These women are amazing, spunky, and oh-so-not-your-average-grandma-like!
What pops into your head when you hear, see, read the word ‘Grandma’? An almost angelic lady with a halo of white hair, sitting on a rocking chair with knitting needles or feeding you with some of the best food you’ve ever had or telling you a story? Must be something around those lines, I’m sure.
What if I tell you that there are Grannies on the internet who can rock any yoga position or become viral for that very food you love, or be the warrior of the stories they tell? You might have LOL’d at this but scroll down and prepare to be lit up with these granny videos with more likes than all your instagram posts combined.
At 98 years of age, Nanammal just casually goes on being one of the best yoga teachers in the whole wide world, rocking every yoga position like a pro and winning competitions. The usual.
Can you cook? Most of us can. Do you have a food blog? Some of you may. Does it have a lot of followers? Probably a few. But… are you a 105 years old? I’m pretty sure you’re not, unless you’re this lady who can cook almost anything and everything, and it’ll probably be the best ‘grandma’s recipe’ one will ever get their hands on.
You must know what ninjas are, right? Now imagine one, with an expertise on an Indian martial art (Kalaripayattu) wearing a sari, with the longest sword you can imagine and ‘only’ 74 years old! Meet Meena Raghavan, who is only a costume short of being the most badass ninja ever.
These granny videos prove that grannies are the real MVPs and prove that there is no such thing as ‘age appropriate‘ behaviour. Try a page from their diary someday!

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
