Profile
Magda is first introduced at the auction of the Fabergé egg, to which Bond mentions to Jim Fanning "Now there is a lady".
Magda appears again when Bond travels to India. Whilst in the hotel casino Bond offers Magda a drink, but she declines. It is not until Bond makes it clear that he has the real egg, does he find Magda waiting for a romantic dinner at his hotel. Magda steals the egg the next morning after seducing Bond, a plan 007 allows, so he can follow its location.
Later in the film she is present when Bond is held captive at the Monsoon Palace and aboard the Octopussy circus train. When she learns of Kamal Khan's deception, she plays a vital part in the attack on his palace at the end of the film.
