Trivia
Major confusion occurred in India among fans when Hollywood movie Short Circuit released in1986. Many people who had seen the film thought that Fisher Stevens ( Who played the part of a Indian) was actually Javed Jaffery.This was due to Javed being a splitting image of Fisher Stevens with his beard and round eye glasses. Javed had just had his first release Mere Jung. In the film he sported round eye glasses and a beard. When Short Circuit released in India many though Javed had acted in a Hollywood movie. It was only after Javed confirmed in interviews that another actor starred in that film did people finally know the truth.
