Born in London in 1939, Helen clearly realised being called Helen Jairag Richardson would have been a bit much for Indian audiences to quite digest, and so Indian cinema's dancing queen used just her first name.

Not that she needed more, we loved her right from 1958's Howrah Bridge, where she grooved to Mera naam Chin Chin Chu.
