The "Tiger of Madras" takes time for the fans. Vishy Anand is not playing this year, instead he is helping the talented youngsters of India here and interviewing the players after the round. A true legend in his own country!! #tatasteelchessindia

Levon Aronian: "The only reason I get this cup, I think, is that Arjun is a very strong player in chess, but he’s not physically so strong to carry two cups!"
