Bollywood Hungama

Mumbai, Jul 31: Bollywood's original 'Dancing Diva' Helen will be seen making her comeback in Bollywood with a film titled Bachpan. The film is directed by debutante director Rajiv Sharma who has in the past assisted filmmakers like Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Satish Kaushik.

Taking on from where last year's smash hit Taare Zameen Par left, Bachpan is a musical family saga, laced with emotions, seen from the perspective of children. In fact, when Rajiv Sharma decided to debut as a director, he zeroed in on this project which reflects the sensibilities of children.

As for Helen's character, she plays the role of a grandmother in Bachpan. An elated Helen says, "The script was simply amazing. And when I read it, I was so overwhelmed, that I decided I had to do it. I have recently seen the rushes of the film and liked the way it has shaped up immensely."

Apart from Helen, the film will also star another veteran actress Padmini Kolhapure along with four talented children.

Mehbooba, Sholay


A song of Mehbooba's stature could not have possibly made the same impact without Helen's high-voltage jig.
In true showgirl style, the stunner in her gypsy-themed avatar wiggles her belly and swivels with marvelous verve and compelling tenacity.

An addictive song, an electrifying sight -- that's the show-stopping magic of Mehbooba for you.


Tora mann bada paapi, Ganga Jumna


Though her nightclub acts became hugely popular, the versatile Helen didn't shy away from slipping into the classical mode either.
Her mesmerising display of Kathak, detailed with nuances and adas in Ganga Jumna's Tora mann bada paapi, is a case in the point.

It bears no resemblance to the larger-than-life showiness associated with her usual stuff. And for a true-blue Helen admirer, all her on-screen facets are more than welcome.


Aa jaane jaan, Inteqam


It is rather mandatory to expect a whole lot of gimmickry, showmanship, props, and the works in a typical Helen act.
True to these elements, Helen performs to the hilt, doing her own brand of ballet in a slow and sensual fashion with breathtaking perfection for Inteqam's winning composition, Aa jaane jaan.

Sophisticated and sexy as always, her inventive make-up and bizarre clothes contribute to the surreal aura she carefully builds around her dances.


Aiyay ya Suku, Suku, Junglee


Adding more visual appeal to the palette-themed set-design of Aiyay ya Suku Suku, Helen breaks into a delectably- inspired version of flamenco.
Infected by her foot-fancy revelry, Shammi Kapoor too joins in to pay a fun-filled tribute to Ms Suku [Helen's name in the film].

Together, as expected, the swinging duo burn the dance floor and give the Hindi film industry another terrific act to rave about for years to come.


Aao na, Mere Jeevan Saathi


Helen turns on the heat yet again. This time, in a body-fitting, slit-happy red gown and elaborate hairdo, to take complete charge of a visually-challenged Rajesh Khanna's senses in the delicate yet provocative, Aao naa.
Carefree and cheerfully unmoved by the medical condition of her object of affection, Helen dances in gay abandon, showering lust-heavy attention, more than once, on the hapless hero.

Going by the wide-mouth expression of Kaka alone, we can safely tell the seductress it's a job well-done.
