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. Karan Tanna, CEO & founder, Ghost Kitchens, talks to BrandWagon Online about his weekends, favourite vacation destination and more.
What is the one thing you like to do when not working?
I seldom switch off from work because I thoroughly enjoy building companies and brands. Additionally, I have a strong interest in reading about industry news and keeping up with the latest trends.
How do you spend your weekends?
My Saturdays are dedicated to brainstorming further growth for Ghost Kitchens. Besides that, I like to explore new restaurants and cuisines. On Sundays, I spend time with my family and use the day to recuperate and refresh my energies and ideas.
What are your favourite gadgets?
I don’t have a particular fondness for gadgets, but I am an avid user of Apple devices as they help streamline my daily routines.
Given an option to choose another career, what would it be?
If given a chance to pursue an alternative career, I would be more interested in Marketing and Branding.
Which is your favourite vacation spot?
When I take time away from work, I like to visit my hometown and spend time with my family. Other than that, I prefer to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and immerse myself in nature.
A TV show, a movie, and an ad campaign you highly recommend watching
A TV show I binge on is “The Playlist,” which tells the story of Swedish tech entrepreneur Daniel Ek and his partner Martin Lorentzon as they set out to revolutionize the music industry with a streaming platform called Spotify.
The movie would be “AIR,” where Sonny Vaccaro and Nike pursue basketball rookie Michael Jordan, creating a partnership that revolutionizes the world of sports and contemporary culture.
An ad campaign I highly recommend is by MSMEX.in, which highlights the contribution of MSMEs to India and discusses how the world views businessmen and their impact on India’s GDP.
