Actress Deepa Khandakar mentioned, "Zaki bhai was unwell during the filming of the film. He still guided us while being seated in a wheelchair. It would have been lovely if he could have witnessed the completion of his film."

Zaki's debut film, "Ghuddi", was released in 1980, for which he received the Best Dialogue Writer Award. The song "Abar Elo Je Sondha" from the said film is also widely acclaimed and popular.
