Remembering, 5 mesmerising performances of Bollywood’s dancing diva ‘Helen’

One of Netflix’s latest released movies, ‘Monica, O My Darling’ featuring Rajkummar Rao, Huma Qureshi and Radhika Apte in the lead roles features a song named “Yeh Ek Zindagi”, which draws inspiration from Helen’s song “Piya Tu Ab Toh Aaja”, 1971.

The Indian film industry without a hint of spicy and hot item numbers is impossible to imagine. The trend of dance hit numbers is not only confined to Bollywood. Every corner of India is full of colours and shares a similar taste for entertainment.

The modern-day glamorization of off-beat tracks and music experiments still looks a bit amateurish when compared to their contemporaries who thrilled the audience decades back. From South’s Disco Shanti to North’s Helen, their bold attitude and heart-melting performances have stunned fans like no one else.
