when sagar come with a coat on a shirt and sports shoes on formal pants. I felt that fashion sense.

[@abilashsagar8150]

Loving this boy more and more as time goes by- Guki , his respect to vishy is immense. If I was on podium,I would not have paid attention to gesturing as small as standing up when vishy stood to speak abt pragg 47:35

[@Neo__01]

Interviewee : ***Breathes*** Sagar Shah : WOW, Amazing! Its wonderful!

[@pratikagrawal3259]

Thanks Sagar, WACA and everyone for a memorable evening today. Really loved getting to know more about the GMs. There were few stories shared that made me realise what makes a sport great are the stories attached to it. Would have loved to interact with you and all others a bit more upclose but maybe some other time. Thanks for providing this opportunity, had my fan moment seeing the calm and poise of Vishy sir in person.

It means i am thirsty right 46:50..😂😂😂😂😂

[@karthikrao1127]

It was memorable for all of us who attended the event, having witnessed them at close distance. Anand's stories were delightful to hear. Sagar hosted the event superbly and graciously stayed back at the event's end , signing autographs and selfies when most of the crowd was disappointed for not getting the guests' autographs.

[@gunjansrivastava]

Wow kids....gr8 opportunity You all are already winner, when you are facing world's best player without any fear or nervousness

1:56:08 Hath me yellow paper dikh hai suhani.. agli bar dhyan se perform karna🦹🦹🦹

[@NIMBADITYATIMSINA]

Golden comment😂

[@ptj1ptj172]

Thought Bangaloreans knew only Java and Python. Never knew they know chess :)

[@jaspergupta]

Suhani was just amazing. Kudos to her. Love the way in which the whole event was held.

[@SportsParadise_]

1:56:00 she fakes that she can read mind ,here she goes backstage to get the yellow paper that you can see on her left hand and put that paper in the box real quick , she is fake like bageshwar dham baba

[@SportsParadise_]

1:55:21 here she even refused to tear the bag otherwise her assistant that was writing all the things wouldn't hand over the yellow paper and what a lame excuse she made

[@SportsParadise_]

Even vishy Anand sir saw that and doesn't get surprised with her fake mind reading magic

[@gauthamrajgandhi7497]

They all should have given the legend a standing ovation, only few stood Unfair 💔

[@AshokN]

Very well organized. Thoroughly enjoyed the evening

[@AnujAnthwal-on4vl]

Yes you are right ....😢 Her mind reading was good but these types of tricks aren't

[@shru911]

Why don't you check bagheshwar baba and then tell otherwise don't spread misinformation

[@SportsParadise_]

@@shru911 do you believe in bageshwar dham baba?!🤦😂

[@shru911]

​@@SportsParadise_ Since I have not checked also all the journalists (not only godi media but mojo n others) tested and could not prove him fake so I will not make any statement based on my limited knowledge. How much do u know about hinduism, guru siddhi n all?

[@vaibhavsoni4253]

@@SportsParadise_ u believe in the p*do god?

[@hazardous4873]

the trick suhani played was so planned out the person litrelly cancelled the 5 😂 wasn't even bothered to make it look she knew it already

55:40

[@subhampoddar3160]

Amazing event ❤

[@swadeshranjan8573]

Suhani had the yello paper in her hand when she was cutting the packet. The whole thing was being written by someone outside and she getting the scisors was part of the act where she got the paper from her team. This one got caught

[@atharva.19]

but how that paper went inside the locked box under 10 seconds?

[@NusratSarah]

I love one thing about Anand Sir very much is he didn't stop after beating World's best Chess players , he didn't stop after winning the title World Champion (Chess) (5 Times) , he didn't stop helping others to build up themselves ; he is always standing beside the young chess players , guiding them greatly who are now shining bright like diamonds . He speaks always very calmly which soothes the soul and he's an amazing person Indeed. ✨😊

[@DKMRFCBrlz]

I love Sagar Shah

Gukesh is kind of so fine😶

[@divyaanshverma8304]

U need to have a certain rating for coming in his category 😮‍💨😏

[@Leal-vr4xd]

@@divyaanshverma8304 yea 🥲

[@subhankarbhadra781]

The last Suhani’s trick was definitely someone writing those backstage and then she went backstage for the scissors apparently, and she puts her hand in the envelope first. Come on 😂😂. And she didn’t agree to tear the envelope, of course. Scissors were a very bad misdirection…

[@sanjeebpadhi8210]

what is this ? already 7 ad in 25 min.......

[@kiratsidhu10]

Why is the audio so bad? Get someone good for these things, horrible noise cancellation.

[@PlaytoLabs-RoboticsCounsellor]

Sound quality is very poor

[@anishmahale9448]

What was the venue of the event?

Is arjun no longer part of WACA?

[@harshitasmusiccollection6422]

[@srksrksrk123]

At the end of all players introduction, they are introducing everyone who is not present. They did not say anything about arjun

[@adibmahmud3892]

they didn't even mention Nihal

[@sriramramdeni4786]

Pragg, gukesh like sir ka band Thoda Jyada bajane wala hai 1:54:05

[@tamilaarumugam2802]

The sound system is so bad

[@samkitjain]

[@shivasundar]

@ChessbaseIndiaChannel: you guys did not talk about Arjun! Just bcos he is away playing, you could not even include him in your presentations! And Nihal too!

[@itsamess2024]

[@Randomthings1210]

Arjun is not part of WACA. This is WACA program 😅

[@gauthamrajgandhi7497]

Very poor quality and production value Who ever arranged this should evaluate his work

Mind reader definately. I became unstable for many days because because she tells she reads minds which is absolutely false

[@RatulDoley]

Wanted to attend as The hall was nearby where I stay. The registration request response never came.🥸

[@mohithts4552]

Such a well organised event, absolutely loved it!!

[@AshokN]

In the end they allowed without registration. No checks
