In this exclusive interview, 19-year-old chess grandmaster Divya Deshmukh discusses her recent success and her aggressive playing style, which she describes as natural and inbuilt. She addresses her consistent victories against top Chinese players, stating, "I just kept fighting till the end and I think that is what helped me." The conversation also touches upon India’s ‘golden period’ in chess, with young players like Gukesh D and Pranav Venkatesh achieving global recognition. A key focus is the scarcity of female grandmasters in India. Deshmukh expresses hope that her and Koneru Humpy’s success will inspire more young girls to take up the sport seriously, contributing to a new wave of female champions from the country. #divyadeshmukh #chess #grandmaster #itwebvideos #worldchampion #indiatoday #exclusive #chessinterview #indianchess #womeninchess #girlpower #madeinindia #futureofchess #aggressivechess #checkmate #goldengeneration
