Biography from TheMovieDB

Saifuzzaman, known artistically as Zaman Saif, was born on June 12, 1985, in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Professionally, Zaman Saif is a dedicated musician, with his journey into the world of music beginning at a very young age. In 2003-04, he finished second in a music course at the Dhaka Shishu Academy. Alongside music, he also trained in recitation and acting at the academy. His musical education continued at home under the tutelage of Benjamin Costa.  In 2004/5, Zaman joined Kishore Theatre, where he performed in various stage and street plays, including the First National Children's Theatre Festival. However, his involvement in theater became limited due to academic commitments during his SSC years. Despite this, Zaman always remained connected to music.  Currently, Zaman Saif is the lead vocalist of the rock band DREEK. The band has released a solo album and several singles, some of which have gained significant popularity among young listeners.  In addition to his musical career, Zaman was actively involved with FM radio for a decade, starting in 2010. He most recently served as a Senior Producer and Music Schedule Archive In-Charge at ABC Radio. Zaman has also ventured into acting, appearing in two films: Ora 7 Jon, directed by Khijir Hayat Khan, and Megher Kopat, directed by Walid Ahmed.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
