Hi Nirmala,
First of all, age is no bar in learning and developing new skills. Also, learning programming and coding could be fun.
Whether programming is a requirement to start working as a Salesforce developer: It mostly depends on the job profile but in general they say that prior programming experience is not required to start working on Salesforce. One can directly start working on Salesforce and learn it's proprietary coding languageslanguages on the job.
It might be easier to work on Salesforce development if one has prior knowledge of Java and SQL.
I always recommend that everyone (whether in programming or not) should learn atleast one procedural programming language.
