Siddharth is a 28-year-old software developer who feels stuck in a low-level coding job. He has always dreamed of becoming a professional landscape photographer but has never pursued it because his father, a successful engineer, always told him that photography is 'just a useless hobby' and that he would only be proud of him if he worked in a high-status corporate tech role. Siddharth is deeply unhappy and feels like a failure despite earning a comfortable salary. He has few close friends and avoids social gatherings because he feels he doesn't measure up to his father's standards of success, which prevents him from pursuing his true passions and developing meaningful relationships.
