In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Yusuf Khan is the father of Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel. Having appeared in the Disney+ show and then later in the film The Marvels, the character appeared recently in Daredevil: Born Again episode 5. In the show, he can be seen working at a bank where Matt Murdock goes to ask for a loan for his law firm so that their business can be expanded.

Since the bank manager is on leave, Yusuf fills in for him and is the assistant bank manager at the same branch. He strikes up quite the conversation with him and even tells him about his daughter Kamala Khan and Jersey's superhero Ms. Marvel. However, the bank unfortunately can't grant Murdock his loan, but the two still end things on good terms, and Matt leaves.

Just as he is leaving, Matt learns that a bank robbery is taking place at the same bank, and he goes back in to save those inside. He then works with Yusuf to get everyone out safely while the cops also handle the situation by themselves. Turns out, the robbers were after a precious diamond locked in the bank vault and Matt was able to retrieve it and save Yusuf when he was taken as a hostage too.

However, before leaving, he sneakily keeps the diamond back in Yusuf's chocolate tray, leaving him in shock.
