PICS OF GOVINDA::
SOME WORDS OF GOVINDA:
Tell
us Govinda where did you get the nickname Chi Chi from?
Do
you have a clue?
Arre yaar, you know this name has stuck with me for a long time now.
Pehle pehle when I was working with all the top actresses, na, a lot of
them used to find me very funny...I think they used to secretly laugh at
me...they thought I was downmarket, too gawky. So I think
what they
actually meant when they lovingly gave me that nickname was
'CheeChee'. Luckily for me, I proved to them eventually that I am not
such a gavaar after all...from then they changed it to 'Chi Chi'And now
everyone called me that. Like you they too have no idea where it came
from. But I have no problems....it sounds quite sweet I think.
Does that mean you won't be offened if we call you chi chi too?
Oh no...feel free to call me by that name. In any case most people
seem
to have forgotten my real name...
But Govinda isn't your real name either is it..?
It's not. My real name is something else, only....but we decided
to use
Govinda as my screen name for two reasons. First, my mother used
to
call me Govinda all her life, and secondly most of the other
common
screen names hasd already been taken.
But the name Govinda is hardly common....
No, it's not common. In fact it's quite unique. So I thought
I might as
well have a name that is different form everybody else's. But you
know
something? I have been told that after I joined this industry and became
a popular star, a lot of ladies who are my fans have kept their
children' names Govinda. How lovely na?
Hopefully that's all these little one's have in common with you..
Why? Why do you say that? I'm not a bad influence...I don't do too much
maara mari on screen. I don't trouble my heroines...I'm just a pyara
sa
bachcha myself.
But
do you think mothers really want their children to grow up and be
like
you?
That I don't know. Even if they don't want their children to become
actors like me, there is one thing I can teach their children.
And pray what's that?
Children should learn from me how to love and respect their mothers.
They should take my example..barely was I able to watch my mother see
me reap the fruits of my success and her blessings, that she was taken
away from me. Children must shower all their love on their mothers
and
give them as much love, comfort and pleasure as they can....you never
know how long you will have them in front of your eyes.
Chi Chi what did your mother think of you as an actor?
She was always very fond of me... There was never an occasion when she
said I was bad in a film. Sometimes I would watch an old film of
mine and
shudder to think how awkward I looked, but my mother would still be
smiling...I think she couldn't think of me as anything else but her son,
so
she could never be objective about me or my acting. For her,
I was
always the best.
Does your wife think you're the best too?
She thinks I'm good, but I don't think she finds me the best. She's always impressed with my friend Sanjay Dutt. She keeps telling me how good he looks on screen....
Do you get jealous?
Nahin yaar, I don't get jealous. But I keep teasing her all the while
that
others think I am the best, my own wife doesn't think so herself.
But
that's all in a joke, haan!
What
about your daughter Narmada? Is daddy dearest her favourite
actor?
No...Yehi to buri kismet hai...even my daughter doesn't think I'm the
best! For her there's nobody better than Salman Khan..She has seen
Judwa over a hundred times. My films she can barely sit through.
