Controller doesn't reinitialize when redirecting to the same controller

Hey guys, i’m facing an issue when redirecting with “ui-serf” directive or with $state.go, to the same current controller, it doesn’t reinitialize, i have a menu.html template that have ion-side-menu directive side=“left” and a list of ion-item with ui-serf directive redirect to app.chat state, the first time the controller gets intilized but when the user redirect to another state and open the left side menu and click on ion-item to go back to chat state, the controller doesn’t execute !, how can i force it to reinitialize the controller.

you need to either use cache-view=“false” or do your initialisation code on $scope.on(‘ionicView.beforeEnter’, function(){})
