A man's emotional journey from being a student at a college to working there as a security guard has left many people reflecting on life's uncertainties.

The post was shared by Instagram user Sahil. The caption read, "Jis college me padhne ke liye aaye the, aaj vahi guard ki naukri kar rahe hai."

In the video, Sahil can be seen speaking to a young security guard at the college. The guard shares that seeing himself in a security uniform at the same place where he once dreamed of studying feels overwhelming.

"Abh apne aap ko guard ki line ke andar dekhte ho toh mujhe khud ko bada feel hota hai. Kayi baar jaise students milte hain toh unse main milta hu na, toh uss time kya bataun, andar se kai baar rota bhi hun ki yaar batao kismat kahan se kahan le aayi," he said.

Recalling his past, he revealed that he had once come to the college hoping to take admission in BTech. However, his family's financial condition gradually worsened, making it difficult for him to continue his education.

The security guard also spoke about his interest and skills in 3D designing, saying he had knowledge of professional software including 3D Studio Max, Cinema 4D and ZBrush. He said he often receives encouragement from law students who ask him to continue pursuing his passion.

"Mujhe kitne law ke students milke jaate hain ki paaji, aap aisa karo, continue karo, chahe jaise marzi karo. Kyunki mujhe 3D ki bahut knowledge thi pehle. Main professional software use karta tha. Bas vohi hai, shayad luck bhi nahi saath de raha tha," he said.
