Time in recovery
Five chapters
A Life in Five Phases
From the depths of addiction to the lights of the Moscow Film Festival. Every phase was necessary.
01 / 05
The Darkness
Addiction
1998 – 2005
Like so many, Nayeem's early adult years were consumed by addiction. The cycle felt unbreakable — shame, isolation, and the weight of a life shrinking inward. This was the before.
02 / 05
The Turning Point
Choosing Sobriety
2006
On January 1st 2006, Nayeem made a choice — not a resolution, but a decision. He stepped away from addiction and toward something he couldn't yet see clearly. That single moment changed everything.
03 / 05
The Art
Photography & Visual Storytelling
2008 – Present
Recovery revealed creativity. Nayeem discovered that seeing the world through a lens was another form of healing — a way to witness the beauty that addiction had obscured for years.
04 / 05
The Mission
CEO & Founder — AMAR Home
2013 – Present
Thirteen years ago, Nayeem established AMAR Home — a rehabilitation and treatment centre in Dhaka, Bangladesh. What started as a personal calling became an institution for lasting change.
05 / 05
The Recognition
Moscow Film Festival
2026
