Hamid Character Analysis

Nazneen and Hasina’s father and Rupban’s terminally unfaithful husband, Hamid is an overseer in the paddy field, and the second richest man in Gouripur. Furious when Hasina decides to elope with Malek, he keeps watch outside the village for sixteen days, hoping his daughter will return so he can chop her head off. She never does return, and Hamid, who would have preferred sons, arranges a marriage for Nazneen to Chanu despite the fact that Chanu, a failed academic, is roughly twenty years Nazneen’s senior.
