New Delhi: Indian Chess legend Viswanathan Anand was left clueless by two young twin sisters during an interaction at the Chess Olympiad in Chennai. The 8-year-old duo's query got the best of Anand, as he tries to look for an answer for a while before finally saying, "I have no idea". The latter couldn't find a proper answer as most of the people including Anand couldn't understand the complex question by the young chess fans. In a recently shared video on social media, the young twins can be seen brainstorming about what to ask the Grandmaster, and in the end, question something about 'distracting the chess pieces'. As Anand contemplated the question and began to answer, the little girl interrupted him and repeat her question again. Super confused with the whole equation, Anand finally said, "I have no idea. I try but they never get distracted. I’m sorry but you can try and distract the opponents but I don’t know how to distract the pieces". Watch: The video was first shared by Twitter user Anuradha Beniwal, which was later retweeted by Anand with caption, "Question Of The Day". The question of the day! https://t.co/bYWrcTtMyA — Viswanathan Anand (@vishy64theking) July 31, 2022 The video clip has now gone viral on social media, with Twitter users coming up with hilarious takes on the entire incident. "How to distract the pieces? Only a boundlessly creative mind which is consumed by the game could think along those lines!", a user wrote. "In mix of innocence!!", another said. In mix of innocence!! — Hemalalitha (@HemaMurugesan) August 1, 2022 If a piece can move, it can threat other pieces, it can take etc. then it can be distracted. Just Brilliant. Its a great question, when I think from an eight year old's perspective. — Sumit Srivastava (@fabsumit) July 31, 2022 Vishy you should understand their question in person, maybe they would have developed some new techniques which no one has ever imagined in the game. — Prafull Chalak (@PChalak) July 31, 2022 Meanwhile, on work front, five-time world champion Viswanathan Anand has decided not to take part at the showpiece event being held in Mamallapuram till August 10.
