On the strength of the Nadeem's script, this project attracted a star studded cast, with Vinnie Jones describing the screenplay as "one of the best he's ever read." Proving that he can deliver a commercial success, Nadeem went on to direct close to a dozen more pictures through his Los Angeles-based production company, Formula Features.

Currently, Nadeem is in post-production for Impropriety, and developing a project set to take place in his native country of Guinea where he looks forward to growing the nascent film industry and bringing Hollywood style production values to the region.
