Narayan Murthy’s recent call for young Indians to embrace a 70-hour workweek sparked a heated debate among working professionals. Shark Tank India 3’s Namita Thapar joined the conversation, sharing glimpses of her Halloween party on social media and raising pertinent questions about the impact of extensive work hours.
In a note tagging fellow Shark Anupam Mittal, Namita expressed, “Halloween shenanigans are always fun, but if we listen to you & other experts about working 70 hours/week, will we ever find time for family, creating precious memories & most importantly for mental health?”
Anupam Mittal responded, “Better to embrace and find work-life harmony than to continue to be torn between work-life balance.”
Namita offered a befitting reply, emphasizing the potential toll on physical and mental health due to extended work hours. She stated, “How can we, as leaders or companies, ever enforce such demanding schedules? We must help each employee be ‘the best version of themselves.'”
