Kamal Aman is a determined and loyal bodyguard to Anna Victoria Alcott. He is a character in American Horror Story: Delicate portrayed by Maaz Ali.

Background

Little is known of Kamal's background; however, he did have a wife and children. His wife was a big fan of Anna's, so Kamal had her sign an autograph for her.

Story

Kamal first appeared in the second episode of Delicate. He is assigned as a bodyguard to Anna by his boss, Talia Thompson, when Anna and Dex temporarily relocate to Talia's spare house in The Hamptons after multiple stalker situations. Kamal is a dedicated and no-nonsense bodyguard who is fiercely loyal to Talia and does as she says without any questions asked.

Although initially wary to Anna's suspicions and paranoia, Kamal remains loyal to her throughout his employment. He has cameras installed in both Talia's Hampton home and Anna and Dex's NYC apartment to ensure 24/7 watch. He also drives Anna directly to the hospital after noticing her bleeding.

In the season finale, Kamal helps rush Anna off the stage at the Oscars when her water breaks and she starts experiencing labor. Kamal travels in the ambulance along with Dex and an ambulance driver to get Anna to the hospital to give birth. On route to the hospital, Kamal is shot in the head and instantly killed by Ivy Ehrenreich, who was disguised as the ambulance driver. Upon reaching a carpark complex, Ivy pulls out Kamal's wallet and tauntingly reveals to Anna a photo of Kamal and his family.

Personality and Appearance

Kamal is a tall Muslim man of Pakistani and Indian roots, who usually appears wearing elegant business clothes and a gun when he is at work. Kamal is a protective and loyal bodyguard to both Talia and Anna throughout his employment up until his untimely death.
