D Gukesh stunned the world when, at the tender age of 18, he became the youngest-ever winner of the World Chess Championship when he defeated Ding Liren.
His achievement sparked waves of celebrations in India, and have led to inevitable comparisons with the man whose accomplishment he aped – Viswanathan Anand.
In this exclusive interview with Republic Sport Fit, Indian chess grandmaster Vidit Gujrathi talks about Gukesh’s rise and how he can create a legacy similar to that of his mentor Ananad.
He also delves into a number of topics, including the growth of Indian chess and the nation’s ‘golden generation’ and how chess is seeing rapid popularity growth thanks to the internet.
