Actress Helena, who was seen in Mard with Amitabh Bachchan, was living in America for the last several years, where she breathed her last. Information about his demise has been shared by famous dancer and actress Kalpana Iyer in a post.
According to reports, 68-year-old former actress Helena Luke was ill for the past several days, although she negligently refused to go to the doctors. At present the exact reason for his death has not been revealed.
Helena Luke was a well-known name in the fashion world in the 70s. In the year 1979, she met Mithun Chakraborty and both of them got married after some time of relationship. Mithun was in a relationship with Da Sarika for a few months before marrying Helena Luke.
The marriage broke within 4 months, Mithun da was not a star at that time
Let us tell you that when Helena and Mithun got married in 1979, Mithun was not a star at that time. Only a few weeks had passed after the marriage when quarrels started between Mithun and Helena. After 4 months of marriage, Helena asked for divorce from Mithun.
Mithun had thrown Helena out of the house for his cousin.
In an interview given to Stardust magazine, Helena talked about the reason for the breakdown of her marriage. She had said that Mithun used to convince her for marriage from 6 in the morning till she went to sleep at night. Then we both got married secretly in 1979.
The biggest reason for the breakup of their marriage was that Mithun had started growing closer to Yogita Bali. On the other hand, Mithun also used to taunt Helena about her ex-boyfriend Javed Khan.
Mithun's cousin was also one of the reasons for the breakup of the marriage. Helena had told on this, Mithun lived in the house with his two cousins and dogs. After marriage, I also shifted there. Both his cousins used to spend his money, which I did not like at all. When I asked him about separating the two cousins, he said – If you want to go then go, they will not go anywhere. After this both separated.
