He added, “Another cute little appearance of Harish Magon was in Gulzar’s Khushboo in the Sharmila intro scene with Jeetendra & Harish getting a memorable dialogue ’Yaar ye bhoot itne khoobsurat hote hain, mujhe nahin maloom tha.’ Yet one of the most memorable outing for Harish Magon was Hrishi da’s Golmaal for small Interview scene, as Sunila Gavaskar’s classmate & Black pearl’s fan. Thats how a small appearance on Silver Screen can make you live beyond your life time."
