Chia seeds are called 'sabja' or 'kalonji' in Hindi .It helps to reduce weight by eliminating hunger.

No: kalonji seeds are also called nigella or black onion seeds and are completely different from chia. Kalonji is often used in pickles, has a very unique, bitter, tangy flavour and is deep black in colour (calory/100g = 345), native to South Asia. Chia seeds are grey-brown/white in colour, look like small bird-seeds and don't have a particularly discernible taste (calory/100g = 486), native to Central America. Kedar is right however about the hunger benefits of kalonji. There appear to be indications that kalonji may help with opiate withdrawal symptoms, whereas it is said that chia seeds are addictive. I have no idea to what degree either statements are true to fact.
