	Actors - Bindu

Bindu was an Indian actress during the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s.

Bindu was born to film producer Nanubhai Desai and his wife Jyotsna, a stage actress. Bindu's road to success was not an easy one. With her father's demise at the young age of 13 and being the eldest daughter, the burden of earning a daily meal fell on her young-frail shoulders. However, it was only after her marriage to Champaklal Zaveri, that she got her first film offer. It was to be director Raj Khosla's Do Raaste (1969). From here she went on to write her success story with Shakti Samanta's Kati Patang where she had a sizzling "Mera Naam Shabo" to her credit, a number which is even today remembered as the highlight of Kati Patang. Bindu had prononced her arrival as a vamp.

Kati Patang was only the beginning. Followed by Itefaaq (1969) and Imtihaan (1974), with her mesmerizing performances as a seductress in Imtihaan and as a nymphomaniac in Hawas )(1974), left audiences asking for more. With a sting of hits behind her, she successfully managed to break out of the myth that married actresses usually do not go to become sex symbols, and especially not in the Hindi film industry.
