मॉडल से बिजनस मैन बने आशीष कादयान की जर्नी पर एक नज़र !

टॉप मॉडल्स में से एक आशीष अब दिल्ली में जल्द ही एक इंटरटेनमेंट हब खोलने जा रहे हैं

फिल्म, ग्लेमर और मॉडलिंग की दुनिया से जुड़े लोग अब किसी न किसी बिजनस से भी जुड़े रहते हैं. आप बॉलीवुड में देखें तो बड़े से बड़े स्टार चाहे शाहरुख़ खान, सलमान खान, आमिर खान, अजय देवगन हों या फिर कोई और आज वे सब एक्टिंग करने के साथ साथ किसी न किसी बिजनस में भी हैं. यह स्टार्स प्रोड्यूसर भी हैं. कई सितारों के स्टूडियो और होटल्स भी हैं. अब आप देश के टॉप मॉडल्स में से एक आशीष कादयान को ले लें. मोडलिंग में एक बड़ा नाम करने के बाद अब वह एक बिजनसमैन भी बन गए हैं. जी हाँ मॉडल आशीष ने लक्जरी रेस्टोरंट के क्षेत्र में कदम रखा है.

बेहद उत्साहित आशीष कहते हैं ”मार्च 2017 से मैंने लक्जरी रेस्तरां और लाउंज के व्यवसाय में कदम रखा है. इतने समय में मैंने बहुत कुछ सीखा और अपने व्यवसाय को विस्तार देने के लिए अब कड़ी मेहनत और लोगों के आशीर्वाद के साथ मैं जल्द ही एक मनोरंजन केंद्र खोल रहा हूं जिसमें शामिल होंगे कई कैफे / लाउंज / नाइट क्लब / बुटीक होटल। वहां शानदार और आलीशान आउटडोर और हरा भरा वातावरण माहौल होगा. मैंने इस तरह के आईडिया के साथ उस स्थान के बारे में भी विचार किया है,जो मुझे यकीन है कि सबकी पहुँच में होगा, क्योंकि यह दिल्ली के दिल में है – क़ुतुब मीनार होटल.”

आपको बता दें कि एक मॉडल से उद्यमी बने आशीष कादयान पानीपत से सम्बन्ध रखते हैं. ग्रेजुएशन करने के बाद ही उन्होंने मॉडलिंग के लिए अपने जुनून को आगे बढ़ाया। वह फैशन जगत में अपनी एक पहचान बनाना चाहते थे. उनके आत्मविश्वास ने उन्हें अपने जुनून को कैरियर में बदलने के लिए प्रोत्साहित किया और उन्होंने मॉडलिंग शुरू कर दी। वह 2011 से मॉडलिंग कर रहे हैं  और कई टॉप के डिजाइनरों के लिए उन्होंने रैम्प वाक किया है.

किसी भी चुनौती को कुबूल करने की हिम्मत रखने वाले आशीष अपने काम और अपने जूनून को लेकर बेहद केंद्रित रहे हैं। अपने व्यस्त शेड्यूल के बावजूद वह अपने वर्क आउट और आहार पर विशेष ध्यान केंद्रित रखते हैं। जब कहीं वह सफ़र करते हैं तो प्रोटीन और दौड़ने वाले जूते अपने साथ ले कर जाते हैं.

अर्जुन रामपाल को अपना आइकन और आइडियल मानने वाले आशीष मॉडलिंग करियर को चुनने की वजह यह मानते हैं कि यहाँ उन्हें उन लोगों से भी मिलने का मौका मिलता है जो न केवल फैशन के व्यवसाय से हैं, बल्कि अलग अलग औद्योगिक पृष्ठभूमि से भी हैं। उन्हें यात्रा करना और विभिन्न व्यंजनों की खोज करना भी बहुत पसंद है। आशीष इच्छुक मॉडल को यह सलाह देते हैं कि अपने काम पर ध्यान केंद्रित करें, यही सफलता का मार्ग है! “
