Thanks to Sagar and team for organizing this meet-up. My 6 year old thoroughly enjoyed and as someone who loves paying chess he will cherish this for his entire life.

Sagar's contribution to India's chess scene needs to be acknowledged more. He has been with Gukesh, Pragg, etc since they were young, and in the Kramnik India chess program it was Sagar who took care of the boys (serving food etc).

Gukesh acknowledging what Sagar and Amurta have done for chess is so heartwarming. A ton of times i see people giving all the credit to Samay, but Sagar along with Amruta have been at it since way before. Love samay too btw, its just for me Chessbase India have been there since no one really cared about chess online, their clout was barely anything, their streams had very less concurrent watchers etc. so i absolutely love to have their efforts recognized and presented to the world ♥

What a wonderful human being GuKesh is. He is a genuine, nice, humble man and takes the time to meet all his fans even though he must have been exhausted. I have total respect for him, and I wish him good luck for the world championship 🙏 It would be amazing for him to become the youngest chess world champion in history and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy 😊 👍

He was exhausted. He was stretching his chest and shoulders as a reflex to the pain and exhaustion.

2:06 "They're just family for me". What Gukesh said here really struck a cord with me, because ever since he said to Amruta, with the most genuine smile "Ofcourse I wanted to say hi to you" right after winning the tournament I have been thinking of that statement so much. In a way, it revealed so much of what Sagar and Amruta mean to this new generation of Indian chess players. I feel that Sagar and Amruta, not having kids of their own, must feel these young players as their own. Because they have been with them almost from the start of their journey, in good times as well as in bad just like ones parents do, and covering all kinds of tournaments they played in. You can see that special connection in the countless number of vlogs and various random footage on their channel. No matter what, Chessbase India, Sagar & Amruta are a constant in the Indian Chess scene, and I hope they continue to be for many years to come.

@christ4ever809 watch chessbase indias candidates round 14 live stream,go to the comment section,someone must have time stamped that moment.

I drove 4 hours from Ottawa to Toronto and 5 hours back to Ottawa for this event. It was such a great event; it was like the comment section of ChessBase India came to life. Everyone was discussing chess, ChessBase India, Gukesh, and the candidates with so much passion. The other members in the park were amazed at the commotion. People attending the event took the time to explain the greatness of this movement to them.Thank you, Sagar, for organizing this event. It will be an unforgettable event in my life. And yes, Gukesh has the patience of a saint. The crowd was a bit much, but he took pictures with a smile until the end.

I might be too old to learn chess, but there are a few things that I hope to inculcate from him: his level of self-discipline, grit, determination, passion towards his job. He is also extremely kind towards people, agreed to do a meetup after winning the candidates for free. He was polite, calm and composed. I only wish I can be half as good of a person he is at just 17. Hope you achieve your dreams Gukesh.

You are never too old to learn this beautiful game, not everyone plays professionally, you can still do it as a hobby with friends and family at bars and cafes. It's always great to listen to a person while playing chess, he/she speaks their true self

New Zealand ChessBase India fan here. I love this channel because I think Sagar has the most wholesome, considerate personality in Chess media. I think it's pretty clear Gukesh has quite an introverted and humble personality and wouldn't ask to arrange a fan meet up of his own accord not because he doesn't care about his fans but because he probably does not see himself as someone self-important enough to have 200 people go out of their way to meet him. But i'm sure he really enjoyed the experience and was grateful to have Sagar and Amurta inspire him to do it. I am sure many decades from now when he looks back on his career he will remember very fondly the chance he got to meet and interact with his fans after winning the Candidates before his World Championship win (fingers crossed). And of course for the fans in Canada securing an opportunity for them to meet Gukesh is just a lovely thing to do for them too. Overall, just a very wholesome event that I'm sure was an extremely positive experience for both Gukesh and his fans. How wonderful to see Sagar and Amurta help a reserved but deserving star connect with his fanbase. They clearly are not milking Gukesh for as much content and revenue as possible but rather genuinely support him. I think that's beautiful to see from a Media organisation.

go go go guki, this is the coolest, one of the best moments for chess in india

If you were truly Cherry blossoms fan, you would have known the distributions of Sakura across geographic locations.

So humble he is ... I hope he will be next champion ... 👍❤

He said Sagar and his wife are Family for him . Gukesh’s parents did a great job turning him into this well mannered and humble human being. He will scale many heights. Chess will benefit from him. ✌️

Oh my God! Thanks Sagar for sharing my pictures! I'm flattered! It was a great pleasure to meet and photograph our legend, Gukesh! A big thanks to everyone who came for the meet up and made it one of the most memorable days of my life!!

For so many years Vishy's name was unanimous with chess. Us 90's kids grew up knowing about chess only because of Vishy. It is so heart warming to see post 2020 how chess has boomed in India. The credit goes to Chessbase India but not to forget that Samay's contribution has also been unreal. Vishy's statement calling this 'The golden era of chess' is so poetic. Heart swells with pride. ❤️ Let's get the championship Gukesh.

Wow, only 17 and he can keep his composure speaking to a crowd of people and cameras. That's something most adults struggle with.

It's just phenomenal that our generation has this guy, even as a young boy there is too much to learn from him, if anyone asks me about Gukesh, I'll just answer INSPIRATIONAL .....

indian chess ka dhoni hai ye ladka. captain cool. at age of 17, he is more emotionally mature -> shows how hard work builds character. amazing!

Thsnks to guy that asked Qf4 i too had the same qus Loved gukesh response it is so true that if gukesh draws pressure shifts to other board and it might be a factor of fabi scumbing to ian

A few years later, we will get back to this video and tell future gen that it was the beginning of the D Gukesh era, the golden era of Indian chess! Super proud! Kudos to Chessbase India, Sagar Sir, Samay, and the team.

*Gukesh Will Make Chess More Popular, and Will Bring More Money to The Sport* *Just like Sachin and Virat Kohli*

absolutely fantastic guy .I love gukesh ..he deserves all what happens to him ...he is a great player a great humble person..great exemple for kids all around the world ..I will support and cheer for him against ding ...happy India

Sagar shah is a legend❤. I wanna meet him😢. It's not a Growth of an individual person but it's a huge growth for India in chess. Thanks to all of them who are doing this whole heartedly.

The greatness in chess is the only internationally recognised sport where there is no age and year category for even world champion

pleasant surprise to see the interest and security required for chess in Toronto. Saw the prodigy at 13 and did his interview in Goa on the sidelines of the 2nd International GM Open in Goa and seen him make rapid strides since.

I wish him a bright future...Many more to come for Gukesh....What a fan moment for Gukesh.Sagarji thanks for showing this video..

Thank you Sagar bhai for arranging this and taking care of the security for our Little Indian Gem ❤

What a humble person he is..such an inspiration!! ❤

I'm so happy to see this gentleman succeed. So much intelligence & poise at such a young age is impressive. Congrats to Gukesh, and to the coaches & parents.

Cant even single word for praising him ,he is boy where whole nation proud on himm❤❤❤

I love the pictures in the end! Our gukesh must be loving them ha🌝🫶

Gukesh is just a gem❤

Bhai ek cheez important hai mere hisaab se which you are missing out right now. You MUST cover the other two Indians and how they feel. The true contribution will happen if you cover the entirety of the game spirit, and the losses and missed opportunities for both Pragg and Vidit, plus how they feel should be captured... Provided that they are willing to share. You can do it being the kind of chess channel you are.
