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?
