Entrepreneurship

Özdemir owns the Hatay Civilizations Table (Turkish: Hatay Medeniyetler Sofrası) chain of restaurants, which consists of five branches: Taksim, Aksaray, Etiler and overseas branches in Dubai,[6] Dushanbe,[7][8] and Doha.[9]

Popularity

Özdemir's preparation and presentation of Turkish recipes while almost always smiling to the camera have made him an Internet celebrity on platforms such as Instagram and TikTok. He also donates food to people who are poor and in poverty.[10][11]

Health

In May 2022, "Pray For Burak" posts were circulated on social media as Özdemir was rumored to have had a brain tumor.[12] Özdemir has since refuted these claims on social media as 'baseless'.[13]. A new wave of speculations resulted from posts in 2023 showing his hair shaved. Though it is since been pointed out that Özdemir, a Muslim, had likely shaved his head while making Umrah.
