This question was previously asked in
SSC GD 2018 Question Paper Hindi (11-Mar-2019) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

No improvement

With 'Not only ... but also ...', the verb agrees with the nearer subject, here 'the elders' (plural).

The simple past 'enjoyed' has the same form for singular and plural subjects, so 'enjoyed the function with equal joy' is already correct.

'enjoys' is singular present, 'enjoying' is not a finite verb, and 'are enjoy' is ungrammatical.

Hence, No improvement.
