Hand and Brain special | Pragg+Gukesh vs Vaishali+Bharath

One day before the Microsense Kramnik Gelfand Training camp was about to begin the youngsters indulged in some fun - the hand and the brain blitz game between the team of Pragg and Gukesh vs Vaishali and Bharath.
The hand and brain contest is a fun format where one player is the brain and calls out a piece, while the other is the hand who makes the move. If the brain says pawn, the hand has to move a pawn. Which pawn to move is left up to the discretion of the player with the hand.
Check out this fun game and also see what the Aravindh Chithambaram opening line is all about! :)

But people blame us with the Tamil identity when someone does anything wrong. The same people are against us when we say we are tamils when we do proud things.. Only that time we need to call ourselves Indian.. If you really think everyone ( irrespective of their identity) in India as your brothers/sisters, you will only be happy to say "see my Tamil friends achieved this, I should also try to achieve something like that"

Not only tamil, i can see every other entertainment videos, if some people achieved something, they comment their language too, like he's from this state, that state like that. I can tell you there are lakhs of Tamil viewers also watch this video, and without comment anything. You are just seeing very few comments related to it. If you dont like it, just ignore and scroll.
