Weekends are all about downtime. After a week full of work to meet deadlines, everybody needs some breather to relax and recuperate. From watching a favourite web series to planning a vacation, weekends are designated as family and me time. Rahul Subramaniam, co-founder, Athena Education, talks to BrandWagon Online about his weekends, favourite vacation destination and more.
What is the one thing you like to do when not working?
Disney karaoke sessions with my baby boy, particularly belting out classics like “Under the Sea” from The Little Mermaid.
How do you spend your weekends?
On my one-day weekend, I enjoy long walks in Galleria, always paying homage to the Blue Tokai in Bahrisons.
What are your favorite gadgets?
I recently purchased a Continuous Glucose Monitor (yet to wear it, though). I’d also love to try out the Apple VisionPro.
Given an option to choose another career, what would it be?
While I may not have the talent to be an NBA star, I can be a star NBA coach.
Which is your favorite vacation spot?
I like the destination more than the journey. So nothing beats a staycation. More relaxation, less bumpiness.
A TV show, a movie, and an ad campaign you highly recommend watching
For TV, I highly recommend Chris Hemsworth’s series “Limitless” for its compelling portrait on what we humans can achieve. As for movies, “Seven Years in Tibet” is an overlooked Brad Pitt classic! Nothing beats a historical drama. As for ad campaigns, Gatorade’s “Be Like Mike” continues to inspire me, even 25 years later.
