Check-Mate

In a superb proof of brains outplaying brawn,Vishy has done it again.

He of the modest attitude, he of the superb grey cells, and he of utmost humility personified.

Some years back I happened to see his rendezvous with Simi Garewal.

In a world of show-offs, it was a welcome surprise to see Vishwanathan Anand.

He was so modest and extremely down to earth, that it was difficult to imagine that here was a World-Champion who outplays everybody with his brains.

Such was the guy's charisma, that he outshone every other celebrity I ever saw.

Here was a celebrity without the extra baggage and headweight of being a star.

Chess as a game is not just about beating the opponent with piling up runs and sixes and physical gestures. It can easily classify as one of the best strategy building games.

It takes the best grey cells to classify oneself as a champion and Vishy does the Check-Mate for the second time.

Climbing the ladder of fame,This is the Real Brand India.
