Helen Ann Richardson Khan (born Helen Ann Richardson on 21 November 1938), known simply as Helen, is an Indian film actress and dancer who is best known for her work in Hindi films. She has received two Filmfare awards and has appeared in over 700 films,[1] and is often cited as one of the most popular nautch dancers of her time.[2] In 2009, Helen was awarded with the Padma Shri by the Government of India.[3] She was the inspiration for four films and a book, Helen Ann Richardson was born on 21 November 1938 in Rangoon, Burma to an Anglo Indian father and a Burmese mother.[5] Her father's name was George Desmier and her mother's name was Marlene. She has a brother named Roger and a sister named Jennifer. Their father died during World War II. The family then trekked to Dibrugarh of Assam in 1943 in order to escape from the Japanese occupation of Burma. Helen told Filmfare during an interview in 1964: Helen's first marriage was in 1957 to film director Prem Narayan Arora of Dil Daulat Duniya fame, who was 27 years older than her. She divorced him in 1974.[9] In 1981, Helen married Salim Khan, a prominent Bollywood screenplay writer. Khan was already married and the father of four children; Helen joined the Khan family and had a large role (along with Khan and his first wife Salma) in keeping the family united. All of Helen's step-children have bonded closely with her, and Helen is almost invariably accompanied in public appearances by Salma Khan, Salim's first wife. Helen is a Christian.
