Gukesh is one of the top players in the world of chess! He is going to be playing at the Candidates tournament in a few months from now. Just 17 years of age, it is very interesting to see how this youngster lives his life. We visited his home in Chennai and we get a glimpse of his room in this video. But more importantly we get an insight into how Gukesh lives his life. We think he lives like a chess monk - simple living - practices chess, lives books, focusses on fitness and has a bed to take rest. Simple living, high thinking! Let us know if you too think the same! :)

Why are all these Indian kids so adorable? Gukesh, Pragg, Vidit, etc. It’s hard to pick one to root for. I’d like to see them all win.
Vidit is not a kid. Almost 30.

I didn’t know Gukesh until the 2024 Candidates Tournament. This video has given me a deep appreciation for his great character and personality. We should admire his parents for raising such a remarkable person. Just yesterday, after his defeat to Alireza, I saw how he managed his emotions, neatly arranged the chess pieces, and then left the table. I admire him greatly. Best wishes and success to you and your lovely family.
He even showed up to the press conference. Very mature for a 17 year old!
I've just come from the future to say that this man won the candidates, a living legend.
He will be the chess champion soon
A wc champ that too without even becoming an adult legally, wtf
Best thing about gukesh which nobody talks about is his authenticity. He is true to the camera and does not fake anything for the sake of audience’s approval/validation.
I’m officially on the Gukesh fan bus now ! Boarding in NJ, USA
You must be happy today then
Welcome, fellow traveller
I'm nearly twice his age but I'm in awe of this young boy's genuineness, devotion and work ethic. Watching the way he lead India-B team in Olympiad has given me a lot of optimism & inspiration to look forward to things in my own life. I really hope to see this young man take the throne someday and rule the chess world! Update: My boy won the candidates! 🎉 So proud!
You already wasted your 20’s so don’t waste your 30’s or 40’s! Get out there, become a high value man and quit commenting like a glazing, socially inept weirdo

Thanks my Latin friend❤
No wonder the Indian chess scene is flourishing, with young kids like this coming through, so pleasant, humble and grateful for who they are. Reads books about all the greats in their sports, even Carlsen. I'm sure there will be a book about Gukesh one day.
Sagar was about to welcome Gukesh in his own home. 😂
😁😅

Yessss
Unbelievable that such a chess prodigy live in such a simple way, such a contrast to all the American Divas we know. Go India! Greetings from Brazil.
USA in your head rent free lol.
@@be4st856 bro i think he was talking about the american continent not just the US
@@vishalarya701 there is the possibility for that, but the only reason why I doubt he was referring to all those in North and South America is that you normally call people from the US "Americans" and people from other countries by their country of origin, "canadian, argentinian, brazilian, etc" ... "American" most times refers to a citizen of the US. and not to mention this guy said he's from Brazil, so he'd be calling himself a diva if he was referring to both continental Americas.
Somebody got offended. Their all existence is to be offended. Yes i am talking to you egoistic American.
@@morbillionaire2785offcourse people will feel bad there is nothing wrong with living opulent and prosperous life. Dont indian rich people live a luxurious and prosperous life too ? Then whats the problem?

Who else observed that there was no tour of a wardrobe to check his cloths collections and favorite shoes. No Television just foods for brains. Keep up the good works
I am from the future. Gukesh Dommaraju won the World Championship on November 28th 2024 against Ding Liren. It was the 14th round and Gukesh won a definitive advantage with black sacrificing a bishop on g3. Apologies for the spoilers.
What really I already knows this okay actually everybody knows this
I love, how the success doesnt destroy its character. He is very nice and focused and must have great parents who showed him a lot of love and precious values
True. His parents have done a great thing and the kid has received the blessing sincerely.
@@spellit8093Absolutely right.
Except chess doesn't pay much
@@maladyofdeath the WCC pays 1,200,000 Euros to the winner and 800,000 Euros to the loser.
@@B-fq7ff yes but the point is most aren't making that much and Gukesh though earning decently, is around $100k.
Soft spoken and down to earth and seems to be a wide reader. I am rooting for this guy to be a world champion someday.
well...
At 17, he measures his words so carefully and pick the right word though English is not his 1st language. This kid will go places. He already is,,
From Canada here. Very impressive performance for India’s new generation! They should aim to dominate chess for the next 20 yrs period
A young gentleman and genius. A credit to Chennai, to India, and to the game of chess. Lovely interview ☺
i really like this boy--didnt know much about him before the candidates but have become instantly a fan - so humble and gentle.
Wishing you good luck Gukesh. you will be a world champion one day. your fan from Turkiye
Yağız Kaan ve Ediz Gürel i de destekleyelim
@@Bist1000 destekleyelim
@@Bist1000it's crazy how Turkey has two incredible prodigies out of nowhere. I mean the Indian kids like Gukesh and Pragg were inspired by Anand. Turkey doesn't have such a role model.
He won the candidates 🎉🎉🎉
Omg just found out he's just 17. His skills and maturity made me think he was in his 20s ❤🇮🇳
10:05 that's kind of so creative and smart! Setting the resting space aside from the workplace in your room, because working in the same place where you rest often makes us lazy and sleepy.
wow..hits me hard as I work on the same place as I rest..
Exactly
A chess prodigy. He’s got a long career ahead.
yes . his achievement so far is already impressive. he is a genius
Unless if he get killed
@@user-cp3zm8em8n wow..such a great mindset...so much negativity
@@user-cp3zm8em8n wtf bro 💀
@@himanshu5205Bro Gukesh lives in Chennai. I am not an Indian but I'm sure that there happen many crimes...
After this video I wish him to be world champion, I became a fan of this wonderful boy. Thanks from Argentina.
Check out those books! I was expecting a ton of chess books, but there are some interesting titles. THer is the Agassi bio "Open". The Kobe "Mamba Mentality". He has "No Limits" by Michael Phelps. Several other book son mentality. No wonder he was so strong at holding his mental state in the candidates. Congrats young man!
I've been in India (Bharat) in December-January, I really like Indian people. They are calm, friendly, not aggressive. Although most of the taxi drivers are not pleasant to deal with. And ecology is bad and air is very polluted. Gukesh is typical guy from India (as I see it) - friendly, humble. I wish him to become world champion. I will root for him
Sorry for your inconvenience from Bhartiya guy😢❤❤❤
Bro india is just different from most of the countries in the world
You are absolutely right taxi drivers are really arrogant and aggressive I simply book Uber,ola etc
India is not a country, its a life lesson🥲❤
Such a humble,pleasant and well manned person.Hope Gukesh becomes a World champion like Vishy Anand someday in the not too distant future.
Who is watching this after he won FIDE Candidates?
Almost everyone
Gukesh is a gem❤

Simple, Humble & my favourite ❤ Prayers for Toronto Candidates 🙏🏼

Youngest World champion gukesh 🎉🎉
A genuine and humble fella. Much respect from me, I hadn't really heard much of him until the candidates. Good luck Gukesh.
The definition of "Home" It doesn't have to be grand. It doesn't have to shine. It just should feel like being at home. He is such a humble guy. He represents all of us Indian kids and the youth in general. So so looking forward to him ascend to his glory. We are all with you Gukesh
much love from the UK!! We are Supporting Gukesh with all our heart!!
" I go out and all . I'm not a psychopath" .... I find that very much relatable Gukesh
Wow. This is the kind of interview that I enjoy a lot. Thank you, Sagar.
All the best Gukesh. Give your best shot at the Candidates tournament.
Smart, dedicated, humble and kind. I really hope you become world champion! Rooting for you
7:40 Great to see the book "Wings of fire" the biography of Dr. Abdul Kalam. It's my favourite book.
Inspired..thanks Gukesh and Sagar for this, our best wishes always rooting for you in the candidates.
Thanks sagar! These interviews will help gukesh to get some limelight and eventually he will also get some sponsorship which he really needs at that level!
Simplicity and so focused, I can’t believe he is just 17…😮
I love how he really opens up after they talk about his trophies and just chess. Pure
I literally saw myself that's me just books my pc laptop for work and bed for sleep. Stil chasing my dream. Good luck boy keep life this way only you will never regreat
What a wonderful example! I did not know this chess player before the Candidate's tournament, but I am so happy that he has won it! Best wishes from Argentina
Sucesso no Campeonato Mundial e o Brasil torce por vc.
he said “he used to play with her when he was young”, little boys representing their nation have become so big.❤
Gukesh is a sweet and adorable chess BEAST. I hope he goes on climbing up his way to the very top of the chess world.
king magnus will definitely make this guy popular now like pragg after this video....magnus has love for passionate talented kids like himself
Great Gukesh. Thanks, admirable. Hope he wins the candidates this year. All the best!
Great insights. Good luck for you Gukesh. Thank you very much!
Gukesh is my favourite chess player. So nice to have a glimpse into Gukesh life. Such a sweet kid. Wishing him all the best in candidates!
Thanks Gukesh. Keep at it and keep rising.

Simplicity on its peak ✨
Great show,simple, humble,the future World Chess Champion
I wanted to play chess - mom threw away two chess boards (on of them was hidden, she still found it!) because school finals were 10 days away. Topped school finals, thought mom was right to stop me from playing chess. Started playing again now that I have a good job to pay the bills - I always wonder what would have happened if my mom did not throw away the boards!! Hats off to the rising stars of chess from India - we love you!
im so happy for him.well played in candidates.good job keep going.
as another 17 year old indian watching this video, this was pretty inspirational. truly admire his simplicity and calmness.
Avg indian 17yr like me is stuck b/w neet jee 🤡✊🤡
Genial, me agrada este tipo. Humilde, sencillo y su estilo de juego diferente. Ya quiero ver el match contra Ding, Felicitaciones Retador!
People who watched this video when it was published never even imagined he would be the candidates champion in the next 3 months because he's so young, guki op❤
Like his opening , Gukesh was well prepared for the interview with his brand new microphone.
If i had to choose between Pragg,Gukesh and Vidit in the Candidates,I'd chose Gukesh.His humility is next level.What a character.
And he won!
wonderful video showing the day-to-day work life ethic of a genius.
Love that he has the poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling framed on his bookshelf ♥
this is beautiful how highest rated chess player in india is living a such simple life
very humbled young man hope you win and become new champ congrats from dominican republic
Who is here after Gukesh wins the Candidates ❤
So humble guy..... A great champion in making❤❤
I like this guy playing style of chess. Wish you good luck for your future tournaments.
Proud of u brother. Bring that world champion trophy and make us feel proud ❤
Such a respectable young man. His performance at the Candidates tournament is amazing.

Sagar, thank you for broadcasting this. You do a fantastic job in providing a platform for these wonders of chess and life and also providing us in “the West” with very interesting and awesome content. God Bless
Such a well-rounded sweet personality!
Very nice to see youngsters like Gukesh having such a voracious reading habit. It should inspire more youth to take up book reading.
Absolutely loved it. Always wanted to know what books they read and in such detail we got to know, damn! Thanks a lot for the video.
Down to earth n soft spoken ❤
I think of myself as a kid and this boy is younger than me! Congrats for winning candidates buddy!
Anyone here after he won FIDE Candidates 🏹🏹
Pure Genuine person..❤ from neighbourhood Kerala
Remember him at Gibraltar..still playing chess at the airport. Simple life it seems and why not. Nice guy.
Congratulations and good luck for Candidates ❤🎉
I've long admired Nakamura's play, but your performance truly stands out! I greatly respect you both as an individual and as a chess player-your talent and humility are inspiring. I sincerely hope you win and take home the prize; you truly deserve it!
A rising star! Keep it up GUKI!!
Its interesting to note that the famous poem "If" by Rudyard Kipling adorns the Book shelf of Gukesh! What a lovely inspirational poem! So now we know the source (at least one of the sources) of his inspiration. All the Very Best, Gukesh for the World Championship Candidates!
