The Uttarakhand Startup Community Celebrates a Powerful New Collaboration: “Perfect Family” Partners with Silver Lining to Bring Mental Health to the Forefront

When the Dehradun startup ecosystem talks about meaningful innovation, it often revolves around funding rounds, accelerators, or investor mandates. But every once in a while, a collaboration emerges that goes beyond capital — one that speaks directly to human transformation.

This week, the Uttarakhand founder community witnessed one such milestone as Jar Pictures announced its upcoming web series “Perfect Family”, with Silver Lining stepping in as the official NGO partner. For a region where conversations around emotional wellbeing remain under-discussed, this collaboration lands with powerful relevance.

And leading this movement from the front is Kanika Vizan, Founder of Saarth Ed, whose involvement and advocacy have made the entire Inner Circle family proud. Her contribution marks a moment of significance not just for the series, but for the broader mission of mental health awareness in Uttarakhand.

Why This Collaboration Matters to Uttarakhand’s Founders

Dehradun’s founder community is growing — fast. With rising interest in Uttarakhand startup funding, early-stage accelerators, and more investors actively scouting the region, the conversation often focuses on business. But sustainable entrepreneurial growth also demands something deeper: emotional resilience.

That’s where “Perfect Family” becomes more than entertainment. It becomes context. It becomes a mirror.

The series, releasing 27th November, follows a family navigating therapy, stigma, panic attacks, and the courage it takes to ask for help. These are not scripted problems — they are realities founders and families across Uttarakhand face every day.

Silver Lining’s involvement elevates this from a simple collaboration to a social movement.

“Therapy isn’t weakness — it’s courage. Asking for help isn’t failure — it’s strength.”

This message resonates deeply with early-stage entrepreneurs who often struggle silently while building companies, raising funds, and pitching to investors.

Spotlight on the Leader Behind the Initiative: Kanika Vizan

Within Uttarakhand’s founder circles, Kanika Vizan ji has consistently stood out for leading with heart, clarity, and an unwavering commitment to social impact. As the founder of Saarth Ed, she has dedicated her journey to empowering families, children, and communities — and this collaboration brings that mission to national attention.

Her efforts in linking Silver Lining with “Perfect Family” reflect her instinct for purposeful partnerships and her ability to bridge ecosystems that rarely intersect:entertainment + mental health + grassroots impact + Uttarakhand’s emerging startup community.

This milestone isn’t just a badge of honor — it’s a reminder of what leadership rooted in empathy looks like.

What “Perfect Family” Represents for Founders

Most startup events in Dehradun focus on how to pitch, how to raise investment, or how to scale. But the truth founders quietly confess is this: emotional stability often determines long-term success more than funding does.

The series touches on themes that speak directly to entrepreneurs:

• Recognizing burnout

• Supporting children’s mental health

• Breaking intergenerational patterns

• Normalizing therapy inside households

• Understanding panic, stress, and emotional triggers

• Prioritizing wellbeing alongside ambition

For a region working hard to position itself as a startup hub in Uttarakhand, this cultural shift matters.

Because healthier founders build healthier companies.
