"Another adorable cameo of Harish Magon," he continued, "was in Gulzar's Khushboo in the Sharmila introduction scene, where Jeetendra and Harish exchanged the memorable line, 'Yaar ye bhoot itne khoobsurat hote hain, mujhe nahin maloom tha.' Yet Hrishi da's scene in Gol Maal for a little Interview as Sunila Gavaskar's classmate & Black Pearl's fan, was one of Harish Magon's most memorable performances. That is how a brief appearance on the silver screen can make you live beyond your life time."
