Twins confuse Grandmaster Vishwanathan Anand with 'distracting' question during Chess Olympiad
At the ongoing Chess Olympiad, Grandmaster Viswanathan Anand was left stumped by an innocent question asked by eight-year-old precocious twin sisters during a Q&A session.
Five times world Chess champion, Grandmaster Viswanathan Anand, was attending a Q&A session at the ongoing Chess Olympiad in Chennai when an innocent question by eight-year-old precocious twin sisters left the Chess genius at a total loss of words.
The Grandmaster was left stumped when one of the twins asked, “How to reset the pieces?” As Anand started answering and talking about the direction he prefers his knights to face while setting up the board, the kid stopped him and asked, “How to distract the pieces?”
The question clearly caught the former world champion off-guard and he eventually said, “I have no idea.”
The video of the cute banter was shared on social media. Even the Grandmaster couldn't help but repost the wholesome video on his Twitter handle.
He shared the video and called it "The question of the day!"
