This looks likes a dad with his kids during dinner time
LOL
@AkshunChauhan-pg5zdshe looks like the mother tbh
That's why vishy was easily the best of Indian master on his era. On his days of playing chess no media exposure no technology and still he made a 5 time world champion 😂
@AkshunChauhan-pg5zd Fun fact tania is older than humpy
True
it's like Vishy is the Godfather of the chess mafia and these are his high ranking members 😂
True dat
😂😂😂
His caporegimes and under dons and consiligirere
Yeah Vishy Corleone 😂😂😂
@zepotatoo - Chess "mafia" exists only in your feeble mind.

LMAO 😂
ok
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
comment of the year
Fun Fact: There's a planet named after Viswanathan Anand named '(4538) Vishyanand'.
it's more of an asteroid than a planet, but super cool nonetheless
That itself proves the actual elo of Vishy
@@zTeaTheCoffee A minor planet, yes.
The name planet "Earth" which you guys believe is actually Dhanansayan..... For me it's on my name
Basically the avengers with Captain America calling them
You mean Captain India
Or maybe nick fury
If chess were both anime and Avengers Vishy: Captain America Pragg: Spiderman Gukesh: Iran man Vidit: Thor Arjun: Loki Nihal: Kiyotaka Ayanokouji 🗿 Vaishali: Idk

It's so nice. Vishy influenced an entire generation.
That’s what Magnus tells everytime . He respects vishy a lot for that
Man raised an entire generation for Indian chess. It's literally just a matter of time before India gets another wc
@@NabeelFarooqui nah india too low iq
@@NabeelFarooquia fake world champ xd

Why don't people talk about GM koneru man? Indian LEGEND.. carrying indian women chess for so long and inspiring the next gen just like vishy sir. Now she is almost 40 has kids and still doing so great finished 2nd at FIDE, wish she had won
His Interviewstyle has a strong note of "so, how was school"-type of conversations
for real for real
Vidit is with Dina, the mother of his children 😂😂❤❤
She was definitely flirting with him 😂
😂😂😂
bro😭😭😔🙏
What are you doing Lucifer? Aren't you supposed to checkmate Michael? Or perhaps I should call the presence
@@batlerushirmoyai You sneaky angel ! I'm Lucifer fcking Morningstar ! I do what I want to do. 😈
For a moment I thought this is on ChessBase India. Good job Chesscom.
Oh! Just realized that after reading the comment!
😂😂😂
same here
Where is vidit 😭
Still crying after losing to Nepo
@@forsuper6836why are you toxic? There’s a lot of games still remaining…if anything vidit can play for results more often in the upcoming rounds and that makes his games more exciting…potentially…
This dinner was held while they were still in India iirc. And Vishy, Pragg, Vaishali and Gukesh are all from the same city, Chennai. Vidit would've to travel from a different part of the country just for the dinner so maybe that's why he's not here.
He is the only one far from Chennai to attend this dinner obviously
South indian nepotism
Pragg giving epic answers 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
The admiration in Gukesh’s eyes is so obvious. Truly wonderful and heart warming to see.
So Vaishali and Pragg wearing similar Shirtz.. most probably their mother is taking care 😊😊
Gukesh also same dress. I think it is from Sponsors WACA.
This was lovely. It's a joy getting to meet Koneru, too, whom we've seen in the women's elite for ages but only as pictures and names. She always looks so stern and intense in pictures of her playing, and is such a beast at the board, that I was a little surprised she seemed so warm and relaxed here. It's great hearing from the rest of you, too. We miss Vidit, ofc. He'll be at the next dinner tho, I'm sure. Everything's already been said about Vishy so nothing more to add here :) The world roots for you, India! You're leading the next generation more than every other country, and we're here for it. Love and respect from USA
56 likes and no comments lemme fix that ❤
You are a true Chess lover..Respect🫡😊
I am a simple man, Vishy smiles, I smile..... Lovely to see the cheeky and fun side of him....
this is a stupid comment.
I love the fact that Vishy maintained the connection with his motherland. He never became overly eurocentric. As a result, an entire generation of young Indian players have been influenced by him, and honor him in such a major way, that has allowed them to appreciate his effort.
Honestly, makes me wonder how strong a candidate would be if Vishy was their second man
Being a second is tiring as hell. It would be unnecessarily tough on Vishy.
Now it makes me wonder, why Vishy is not anyone's second. May be he has a huge role designated in FIDE.
@@Eyezofdarkfire what is this?
@@Eyezofdarkfire in big tournaments like candidates or world championship games players will have a ‘second’, which is typically one strong chess player (probably a super GM or close to it) who essentially assisted in preparing theory, openings, lines, helps with analysis pre & post games, studies their opponents, etc.
@@sam9239 thank you for the clarification! ❤️
Vishy is basically the og general leading the young Indian players into battle while teaching them life lessons along the way. I think Pragg has potential to be top 3 in the world his attacks are at times unmatched by anyone.
His nerves are especially good, too. It doesn't matter whom he's playing, either. Calm, cool, collected, and determined, invariably.
@@ClarkPottertrue you rarely see him defeated till after the game is finished, great skill to have for a chess player
Pragg vs Abusattarov was unbelievable
Without me 😅❤🙂👏
Gukesh stayed true to his words, losing before rest day is better for him😂
haha absolutely!
copium is strong
@@ModernWizardx1 this comment aged poorly
@@ModernWizardx1 for who again?
Gukesh innocently asking how did that game go was amazing lolol
have to applaud the longevity of humpy. her and vishy used to be a constant in the newspapers sports section when i was a kid.
True they both used to be in our gk books
pragg beating Fabi and Hikaru in the world cup is still so awesome
the great Indian navy commanded by Admiral Vishy Anand. Congratulations to the Indian players, they are living a historic moment for their country and the world of chess. Greetings from Mexico.
Wow, what a moment! I’m sure Anand valued more this dinner than his world champion title.
Perhaps the answer of Gukesh about the rest day is the reason why he may become the Indian GOAT. He is too professional, too composed as compared to everyone. And that too at 17. It is staggering.
Cool concept. We get to see the other side of these players. More of this please. Vishy and the gang goes to dinner. Next would be- Vishy and the gang showoff their world titles.
Vishy and his boys & girls. He influenced an entire nation and future generations to come! What a legend!! ❤❤❤
Non chess person here. Vishy, AR Rahman, and Sachin were a lovely set of young idols for me growing up. They defined excellence in their respective fields while being classy on the personal side. So beautiful to see Master Vishy interact with the young padawans like this ❤
Passing the torch, thank you Vishy sir
Crazy to see these world class players absolutely star struck seeing Vishy. This new generation is crazy strong and he's the reason for it
We're watching history in the making, and what better curator to mentor the new and explosive talent India has to offer than the great Vishy Anand. When he speaks, we listen.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1606">26:46</a> Vishy's question, " What's worse, losing, or losing before the rest day", and Gukesh's answer. Irony, that the exact thing happened yesterday in Candidates, and I hope Gukesh shakes it off and comes back stronger.
that’s exactly what I was thinking lol but luckily he won the next game!
True to his psyche, he thoguht he has a shot at winning tournament after this loss.
And guess what happened.. he didn't lose a game after that, and won the tournament 🥳🥳
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1445">24:05</a> Finally, Vishy answered what took him a minute and 43 seconds against Smirin. There are many videos on KZhead about that game, including one made by GM Hikaru, but everyone was speculating what might be Vishy's thinking during that time.
Koneru Hmapi is champion. She is a role model for many women . Proud that she is a telugu person .
She is an Indian. Full stop. Do we really need to care about which state. All of them represent India 😊
@@SS-hq3dwI can tell you one thing, there’s nothing wrong with what the original comment said. Don’t be a pedantic idiot.
It matters if the country matters for u....then state matters for us
@@lnstareels3958 im also from Tamilnadu . If u can brand someone under countrys name , then u can also brand them under state name . Im proud that out of 5 indian candidates , 3 are from Tamilnadu .
@@lnstareels3958 bro same way other country ppl can feel that Indians are boasting bcoz 5 of them are indians right ? Do u get my logic . If u feel bad for other indians, pls feel bad for other humana in diff countries also .
This looks like a new Netflix show, meet the Vishys
They did may boy vidit dirty
Maybe he didn't want to come.
probably just travel issues. 4 of them live in Chennai and humpy lives in south india as well whereas Vidit probably has to take a couple of flights from Nashik.
He's enjoying with dina
@@MaharshiRay But aren't they in canada for the candidates?
@@sagnikchakraborty5720 this was recorded before candidates,when they were still in India Source-some other comment
Humpy being mother she is doing bit good , great dedication towards the game managing both home and game. Loved to see her winning
who doesn't wish to have Vishy as their mentor,he is responsible to make India a chess power house,our game,our pride and our champion,proud of you Anand ji,i remember as a kid that you came to our Restaurant in Amsterdam together with Jeron Piket,Van Welly,Timmen,Yaser Sairawan and other GMs,good luck to all of you,my blessing with you guys
I love Gukesh's attitude. It just inspires me 🔥🙌🏼♥️♥️
He is so calm 😌🥂
Good to see them having fun and smiles. They look very serious when playing. Good to see their personality etc.
Respect ! That room is filled with so much anxiety ! And at the same time they were so happy to be there ! Wonderful Moments !
Was looking for this comment🤣
He’s like at the level of Sachin Tendulkar in chess ……..everyone looks up to him and wants to surpass him
when it comes to the question, who the "goat" in chess is, I feel it is often overlooked, how great of an influence Vishy for all these kids was and what a boom of chess he started in India.
Wow looks like a family
Vaishali has such a beautiful face.
Bruh chill
@@Yourmamaspapa You go watch Judit Polgar, Vaishali is mine!
I see where it's going 😂
@@HrushikeshDhore-hb5pvwhere?
This dinner is going down to the history, after 5 years, players will see it as *The Legendary Indians*❤
Great, all r lucky to get his advice except missing Vidit🎉🎉❤
Love this. Vishy is an awesome guy and I can’t wait to see the heights the others reach! Best wishes to everyone in the candidates ❤
There is an area in Toronto called Scarborough where many Sri Lankan Tamils live. You can find many South Indian restaurants here. Excellent dosas, idlis, appams, curries etc. Do try out these restaurants.
😂 tweet it for advertisement don't comment it
Thank you Vishy. Appreciate what you have done for Indian chess. You are the gem of India.
This is such a wholesome video. Thanks for this.
its giving harry potter scene with professsor slughorn holding a dinner party with his most brilliant students, love it!
The odds are highly in favor of an Indian world champ in the next decade. Now that Carlsen has abdicated the throne. Vishy has been a true pioneer and, I'm sure, a great mentor.
god has heard u
What a great idea to host this dinner. I wonder who came up with this idea to film this. Lots of crazy stuff going on in our world these days. This was heartening to see.
I love it, they all seem so calm, noble and even innocent, thank you for sharing the interview.🙏🙏 Greetings from Colombia
Absolutely love the sincerity in everyone for Vishy which he absolutely deserves. This is Bharat for everyone to see.
Great conversation....loved it...I didn't know that Vishy has really good social skills as well...
Vishi Anand..THE Legend..great to see him with youngsters and always backing them.
I love how they tried for a bit to talk about anything other than chess, but it's just so ingrained in all of them that it's what they all gravitate to
Chess needs more content like this! It's just so fun listening to them talking about their experiences, it reminds us that chess GMs are human too, and there's more in chess than analyzing board positions
Love to see Indian Canditates. Their are Working really Hard and Play an amazing Chess.
How lovingly he takes care of them...just looking into this makes me so happy. this is the type of sportsman we need. Truly a man of great endeavour and politeness. Vishy Anand....❤❤❤❤❤❤
these guys are so patient and calm
Vishy is the kind of Dad that always proud of you from your bad to good move every game.
This is surely going to be the best !!
Loved seeing all their smiles. Best of luck to them all in the second half.
It's so lovely to see the big players interact with each other.
The food looks amazing, but the conversation is the delicious part!!
What a wholesome chat! Great job, team 💚
Enjoyed the conversation much.. thanks.
Here after Gukesh's Win in the Candidates ! And you have to see this <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1610">26:50</a> Gangster , he was already different to everyone . He bounced back after the loss to alireza
Nice observation! Vishy in the moment didn’t understand this og
Haha big family vibes to start this gathering, can't wait to finish listening
Gukesh looks like he is always ready for war in a very calm way!!
Gukesh proved his way as you like.Winner of candidates
This is amaxing video Never seen Vishy so chilled and in such mood
Vishy Anand has such an amazing vibe , love everything about the man ❤
Thanks to Gukesh, I finally got to know the answer for a question which had been lingering in my mind for many years - Why did Vishy think for <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="103">1:43</a> min on move 4 in a blitz game!
very nice initiative!
This is how champions are made. Observe all these people are from the same part of the country(South India) that vishy is from. Its simply just showing that possibilities exist, bringing hope. That's enough.
You are so kind and spending time with upcoming generations. Great gesture 👍
I LOVE THIS!!!! SO COOL ! The house that Vishy built !
GM Viswanathan Anand is a loved one in his country, a mission entrusted to him by will is passed on to this new generation of talented chess players in the country of India. GM Viswanathan Anand is a true and passionate chess player and a great educator. 🙄🤔👍
All these players world champions, international tournament winners are so humble.
Always like chess. Vishy is always a favourite with Koneru also a senior pro now. Pragg, Vaishali and Gukesh. Love seeing all the youngsters meeting up with the Champion. It’s highly enjoyable to watch their interactions. Keep doing the good work Chess.
India's chess is safe hands....
Anand like and old wise man ''Veteran of The Biggest Chess Battles on Earth'' who write his name of history of chess!!He just smiling hidden and knows wins and fails part of the journey, he was alone but he reach everything!!New Indian generation of chess, you got ''Icon'' follow the foot steps what he left and not gonna be easy!!Remember!!!for him was much much harder because he was ''Alone''
Lovely dinner and ambiance. Pragg and her sister look very different from others, just amazing how human being are so different physically but are all here for one reason.
Happy that all of them are young...too young...India has a bright future!
This is gold❤
Theres something special watching indian culture and chess very satisfying
What a fantastic idea to record this. So good to see the joyful conversations, impersonations. Vishy reeling off the lines suddenly but Gukesh keenly following it. Amazing! One more after the candidates please!!!
Happy to watch a live discussion of our Indian chess players team.
1,3 million ELO points at the table...
😂
This dad has lovely kids. They have been raised very well.
Good gesture on Anand Viswanathan to bring the fur talents at one table and make an atmosphere of relaxation and fun sharing each one's view over dinner carries sweet memories for life.All the best to the team.Good luck.
Good to see Vishy leading conversation . We all know how much he enjoy such random convos.
💪BE PROUD.. INDIAN PLAYERS. ✍️MALAYSIANS R PROUD OF ALL OF U. 🤑BREAK THE "WEST DOMIMANCE, GUYS N GALS!
Western dominance especially American dominance is through foreign players lol Wesley- Phillipines Leiner Dominguez - Cuba Fabiano - Italy Hikaru - Japan Aronian - Armenia Fischer was the only American homegrown top player If anything Chess currently has a Indian/Russian dominance in terms of homegrown talent (a bunch of Russian players changed federation after war though like Kosteniuk, Alekssenko, Fedoseev and some not so strong players too. A similar brain drain was also seen after USSR's collapse.
True@@mousumimishra4741
fabiano literally was born in the US and hikaru moved here when he was just 2 years old. The US is a country founded on immigration especially for better opportunities. Nonetheless, immigrants are Americans through and through.
@@chris__wheels Obviously I know this yet feels a little scummy especially direct transfers just for money like Wesley and Aronian
@@mousumimishra4741 they will not accept it
Anand was the one who inspired and turned every school IN TN to take chess seriously and all pragg, gukhesh and 1000s of players are the result of this.
Very nice👌thank you Vishy…you are an inspiration🙏 and all the best to the team👍
Very nice! This is why I have so much respect to Indian chess players.👍
Humpy is very senior after Vishy She has been torch bearer for women chess in india
