Legendary Bangladeshi rock musician Nagarbaul James has entered a new chapter in his personal life, announcing his marriage to US-born Bangladeshi Namia Amin—now Namia Anam—and the birth of their son, Gibran Anam. The child was born on June 8, 2025, at Huntington Hospital in New York.
James and Namia married in Dhaka on June 12, 2024, in a private family ceremony, a year after meeting at an event in Los Angeles in June 2023. Initially unfamiliar with his work, Namia developed a friendship with James that gradually grew into a romantic relationship.
This is James’s third marriage. He was first married to film actress Rathi in 1991; they divorced in 2003. His second marriage was to Benjir Sazzad, whom he married in the United States in 2000; the couple parted ways in 2014. James has three children from his previous marriages—one son and two daughters.
Namia, a US citizen, holds a degree in criminal justice from John Jay College, New York. Following the birth of their son, the couple returned to Bangladesh and are currently living with their newborn.
After nearly a decade out of the public eye following his second divorce, James, known for his powerful vocals and his influence on Bangladesh’s rock scene, has returned to family life, embracing fatherhood once again.
