Sooraj Pancholi to start health cafe in Mumbai with his sister Sana

Sooraj Pancholi is all for fitness. So much so, he’s making it his business, quite literally. He is getting into the hospitality business in partnership with his sister, Sana, by opening a health café in Mumbai. Sana already owns a fine dining restaurant in Goa, but Sooraj isn’t involved in that venture.

The actor admits to launching the café with his sister. “A major part of fitness is what you put into your body and I see massive potential in this. Whenever I travel abroad, I always seek out and visit health cafés, something we don’t have enough of, here. I am currently working on a fitness app in collaboration with my trainer. But I always wanted to do something in the health food space.”

Sooraj hopes to put his sister’s experience in the hospitality sector to good use, but says there are no plans of franchising the concept here, just yet. He says, “It’s too early to decide that. Right now, we have only decided to open a standalone cafe. We will offer a variety of health foods like salads/ smoothies/ wheat-based pancakes and healthy desserts. We plan to tentatively start off by year-end or in early-2018,” he adds.
