What differentiate vishy from other chess legends are stated below
1) Still humble even post achieved so many things
2) still in top 10 to 15 elo rating list, I think he is compeating with 2to 3 generations that is insane
3) Contribution through his chess academy
4) Actively advising current Indian TOP chess players

[@wot_hog]

Does Vishy himself teach at his academy? Or is his role more one of securing prestige, funding and visibility?

[@Priy_sharma6]

Yes he teaches as one of the main coach and also Vladimir kramnik on special occasions Also some overseas tutors teaches , but only to the grandmasters.
Actually they prepare them for the tournaments so, no basics are taught to increase elo Or anything else

[@wot_hog]

@@Priy_sharma6 Interesting, thanks! That was one key question Sagar forgot to ask. It would have been interesting to hear Vishy describe his role in more detail.

Vishy is the Lebron James of chess in terms of longevity 👑
