The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a 2012 American coming-of-age drama film-based on Stephen Chbosky’s 1999 novel of the same name.
The film is about a socially awkward teen Charlie (Logan Lerman) who is a wallflower, always watching life from the sidelines, until two charismatic students become his mentors.
Free-spirited Sam (Emma Watson) and her stepbrother Patrick (Ezra Miller) help Charlie discover the joys of friendship, first love, music and more, while a teacher sparks Charlie's dreams of becoming a writer.
However, as his new friends prepare to leave for college, Charlie's inner sadness threatens to shatter his newfound confidence.

Counselling Service strives to ensure an easy transition of freshers from life at home to the campus life. We also try to reach out to the students in distress and provide academic assistance.
The role of Student Guide in guiding the freshers in their first year is quintessential and paramount in working of Counselling Service, and it cannot be overemphasized.
