<p>Directed by Mahesh Tilekar, Helen readily accepted the film offer since she knew him for a long time.<br /><br />Helen, who has acted in hit movies like `Khamoshi' and `Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam' in the last few years dubbed her dialogues in Marathi on her own.<br /><br />Tilekar said he was looking for a Catholic face to essay the role and was overwhelmed when Helen readily accepted his offer.<br /><br />"Barring a few English lines, all Helenji's dialogues are in Marathi and I was surprised by her fluency in the language. She plays a Catholic woman living in a chawl (a group of one or two room housing units)," he said.<br /><br />Tilekar said Helen's jest for life and her passion towards work would shame any young actor of today. "One will not believe that she is 75 years old."<br /><br />Apart from Bharat Jadhav, Bhargavi Chirmule, Ashalata and a host of Marathi actors, the film will also see veteran actor Shriram Lagoo in a special appearance.</p>
