She has thrilled millions of audiences world-over with her voluptuous look and scintillating dance moves. Every act on dancing floors and her dialogues are unforgettable.
Going down the memory lane, Bindu’s key achievement gaining the title of Raquel Welch in India.
Shabbo (Kati Patang) and Mona Darling (Zanjeer) were iconic names that still remain eternal for its word power. Her innumerable Ajit jokes continue to feature in TV and comedy shows, whenever there is journey in the memory lanes of Bollywood.
“Yes, the way Ajit saab said ‘Mona Darling’ in Zanjeer is widely mimicked,” she had stated in an interview. She agrees that her sex-appeal had a lot to do with her physicality adding, “Eyes are also important. My eye make-up would reflect in my light brown eyes. People thought I wore coloured contact lenses.”
What we miss is no actor in today’s generation aims or attempts to recreate magic these icons had left in the minds of millions of audience.
Hope we will have a role cut for a talent that will sail into new heights creating a niche like Helen.
