Govinda's name, Chi Chi's meaning revealed!

For all of us have been wondering for quite some time now? Our Hero No.1, Govinda is fondly called by a name Chi Chi. But nobody for long had any idea what does that mean.In a recent appearance on Sa Re Ga Ma L’il Champs, the little host, Afsha, asked Govinda what his nickname Chi Chi means and the man himself revealed the meaning of his name.



Govinda flashed his beaming smile and replied that Chi Chi means Lord Krishna’s little finger that carried the weight of the Govardhan Mountain. Apparently, it was Govinda’s mother, Nirmala Devi, who came up with both names, Chi Chi and Govinda.

Govinda was hugely emotional while talking about his beloved mother late Smt. Nirmala Devi and was in tears when a contestant sang the song, Maa from Taare Zameen Par. He admits that the only time he felt low and lonely was when his parents passed away.

Yoga and meditation helped him out of his depression and bad times too. Well, aren’t we happy to see the King of Comedy smile all the time?

Dutt risks for Luck

Sanjay Dutt has performed a stunning action sequence for Shree Ashtavinayak's Luck. He jumped from a speeding train, blindfolded and with his hands tied behind his back without any cables or dummies.

Soham Shah, the director of Luck, says Dutt's sequence is one of the biggest and the most expensive highlights of the film as it required to show the five running trains that was shot in Goa as it was technically impossible to set it up in Mumbai or any other big city.

Some trains were kept on standby for a couple of days on two railway tracks. It was a very expensive shoot. A five-day shoot with five trains a day costed the producer over Rs 1.5 crore. "It's Sanju's introductory sequence. He jumps, along with other actors, from a running train, blindfolded with his hands tied behind his back."

All the needed precautions were taken for the same. Says Soham, "It's about these characters testing their luck. We set up cables and kept harnesses ready. So, if anything went wrong Sanju would be not be injured. But when we narrated the scene to him, he said he didn't want
to use any safety measures or dummies. He was kicked about shooting such a high-voltage action scene on his own." Action director Allan Amin led the action team.

Adds Dutt himself, "I hadn't shot such a hard-core action sequence in a long time, so when the opportunity arose, I decided to do it myself. Initially, I was a bit nervous but then I gauged the jump from the cage in the train to the tracks. After the jump, we had to speed away
from the train, and keep running. For that split second, I had m heart in my mouth but fortunately, things went well."

Luck is the debut vehicle for Shruti Hassan alongside Mithun Chakroborty and Imran Khan among others.
