He floored the nation with his dance moves and now, Sanjeev Shrivastava’s dancing video helped him realise a dream he had nurtured for long. The professor from Bhopal, now popular as Dancing Uncle, is a die-hard Govinda fan and had expressed his desire to work with the actor during an interview with us earlier. We don’t know if he will work with Govinda soon but Shrivastava did get a chance to meet Chi-Chi in Mumbai recently.

Along with wife Anjali Shrivastava, Sanjeev visited the sets of a dance reality show and his joy knew no bounds when he met Govinda in person! Together, the two brought the house down with their quirky dance moves and were joined by Madhuri Dixit-Nene as well.

“Itni khushi! Itni khushi mujhe aaj tak nahi hui,” says Shrivastava repeating Govinda’s popular line from a film. He adds, “I did not know that a surprise was waiting for me until I reached the sets. The person who I have idolised for the past 32 years was in front of me and was appreciating my video! I was overwhelmed. I found him to be a very down to earth person. Dancing with him and Madhuri was like achieving a milestone.”

Earlier, Shrivastava also met Suniel Shetty and Salman Khan.
