hikaru : I stream
Sagar Shah : *Bold Statement*
Hikaru: I stream
Sagar: Copyright incoming
😂😂😂
Sagar never fails to interview Nikaru Hakamura
Sagar is such a wholesome guy. Really brings out the best in everyone.
Sagar is undefeated as the world number one Chess-Journalist.
He has a magic tool. He can flatter without hypocrisy.
Yeah he has created a monopoly in chess journalism and vlogging. No one can compete lol
Well levy has started to do interviews. Even tho I can't stand the guy, he gets the views. A ton of views.
You get flattered with hypocrisy or wtf
@@dkurt2725 What does this comment mean?
@@ym276 he wrote “he can flatter without hypocrisy “ wtf that even means Others flatter with hypocrisy? Doesn’t make sense
Sagar's enthusiasm is infectious. Always smile while watching his videos.
same!!!
3:14 💯 agree with what Hikaru says. Based in Europe I interact more with his content online…(where he’s streaming from the other side of the world) and learn more…for Ding, Magnus,Vishy : I admire and I’m inspired by them but it’s true what Naka says the reach and interaction is way better through streaming.
Don't underestimate the fact that Magnus also has partial ownership of probably most online chess platforms and multiple apps/tools. Hikaru's influence is on the nose, but there are a lot of people that have equal or greater influence they as a person are just not necessarily the "brand". He definitely cares if he wins, if he didn't care about winning he wouldn't be competing in events this demanding.
@@DKarkarov its the defense mechanism if he loses he says he doesn’t care if he wins well he wins
Not everything is money championship is pride
I feel the space between boards is very cramped. I’ve seen in Tata Steel , players can walk freely and relax their legs between games. Here it’s just media standing in between and players manoeuvring around - technically between games media should be kept in the side like Tata steel do. Need better planning for candidates FIDE!
Some players also were unhappy about this - heard somewhere online
That's happen when include women section altogether
2:40 i was wears headphones and i thought my right ear went numb🤣🤣
Same goes with sagar. His impact as a content creator is way more than had he been a chess player
Hikaru is a good guy, potrayed arrogant. Yes, sometimes he says some things we might not agree to, but it's his opinions and he's entitled to it. I'm just glad hikaru is there and making a positive impact in the chess world.
He's arrogant. But most players are at the top are arrogant.
he is arrogant. his comments on how its more impactful to be a streamer than a WC is just a coping mechanism for him.
@@nyxicsulfurthat might be true but it might be a true statement though we may not wanna admit
@@nyxicsulfurbecause Hikaru has more content for people to watch then Magnus does, or any world champ does, so people are being impacted more by Hikaru then perhaps by Magnus or by Kasparov, as bold as that seems. Not that everybody is only impacted by Hikaru or anything, this is just to say that streamers and YTers who put out content every day simply have more content and that will be more capable of reaching a large audience because of the quantity of it.
I gave the "64th" like to this comment, the same as the number of squares on the chessboard, and in deference to Caissa, the goddess of chess, I respectfully request that nobody else give a "like" so the tally remains at "64" exactly. Thank you for your understanding.
Their movement memory, amazing
this man is a legend already with or without the WC title
On average I see one Hikaru video per day. Yeah his impact is pretty massive!!
Sagar is a fine example of how to do interviews well and accord the person being interviewed a healthy amount of respect
Wow, great interview. You really brought the best out of Hikaru
Great interview
Nice Interview !
my respect for Hikaru has grown so much during the candidates
Those who don't know..The shirt of Sagar bhai was gifted by Levon.!
It's very interesting to see how Hikaru and the other "born in the '90s" chess influencers (Sagar, Magnus, Levy, Anish, Fabi) have evolved.
Bro think he's Hikaru
Upload the full videos man... why are you always very late to upload
Hikaru tolerates his fans because he's rich af now. He's on top the chess world and hes a streamer 🔥
Hikaru seems so chiled Sagar bhai made him to be chilled in this interview
Hikaru being a true champion, whether he ever becomes world chess champion or not.
he is a 100% right about reaching out more through his streaming... for the past year Ding has been the world champion - i don't know about china but the man was a ghost for the whole time. appeared at a handful of events, thats that. perhaps he is not the one to reach out, but had he wanted to i don't think he'd have any more opportunities to do so as a reigning champion than otherwise.
So very good for Hikaru to spend some time with his fans. Hope he enjoyed his stay in Toronto!
Hikaru is a balanced person and like Anand would enhance the image of chess.
Not really if you ask Insiders or old chess fans Hikaru has very bad image in front of many. And he is nowhere close to Vishy in achievement or in terms of personality. He used to be very moody, arrogant and bad loser earlier, it's probably after Pandamic that he did his whole image of being Patient and good natured. He definitely has more charisma than Vishy though.
Hikaru himself would admit that his personality was like that before his streaming career - in his own words "I used to have no chill".
But now he is one of the most beloved and influential ambassadors of the game and should be celebrated.
@@greendav he is celebrated appropriately.
@@greendav He still has his ticks, its obvious when you look at some of his 'fights' with other streamers/chess players. The old Hikaru is still there he is just better at hiding it
Sagar bhai I was there when you took the interview. I took some pictures and video of you interviewing Nakamura. If you want I can send it to you
they just had a major chess tournament in toronto, how many are they going to have?
I think there should be 2 channel
One new channel:Only Sagar interview and Sagar vlog
This channel :for live stream and for the local tournament cover by other chessbase india journalists.
Because what Sagar do ,it's soo good, it should reach more wider audience .
"Hikaru, Levy and others"....and Sagar!
Man, He is good
Thats the benefit of sagar bhai being in Canada
right now the status of world championship is like that, still becoming the world champion is the best thing , the respect , the history heritage all those things can't compare prestige with commerce but the reach the fan following the commercial aspect of hikaru is tremendous may be just second to magnus, right now world championship is great for the history book and for the players but for the million non players who are just fan the reach the commercial aspect is far too ahead and it's important otherwise it will be just a game of intellectuals
hey sagar big fann
This Hikaru guy seems very charismatic. Maybe he should try streaming.
Sagar OP😊
OP Nakamura boi OP
He is real Bakra in Chess streaming 😁
Cagnus marlsen

Cabiano Faruana
nakaru hikamura
Gujit Vidrathi
Sagar Shah
Well world champion or a 2750+ top 10 GM in the world is like a top scientist, their studies are not popular among the masses because nobody understands that. A content creator is like a local science teacher, who can closely influenc more younger people to get into science.
Cool dude.
Sagar Shah mastering Levy shirts like pro😂
Hikaru is just another levy
*Need a WIN today* ✅
totally saw hikaru on the street yesterday and absolutely froze
Hikaru is cool...
But he didn't even try... 💀
Hikaru should also thank Sagar and Samay. Atleast 40% of Hikaru and Levi's watching is from India. Sagar deserves way more credit than he gets. We love you sagar bhai❤
Lol, sure. They made him the richest streamer but couldn't become 5% as rich themselves. Stop with this street-level thinking and grow up. Both are good at what they do; that's why they are there. Respect them; don't bring this unnecessary drama.
You really think samaya's not as rich as 5% of hikaru😂 what a bootlickers we have in india@@devanshraj396
@@aryanmishra3225 these rural area people have no idea about what is happening in India. How can I expect them to know anything beyond India!
I dont think Sagar himself would say Hikaru needs to thank him... what a wierd comment you have. Just give back to chess, is it okay to have simple motives?
@@devanshraj396this is exactly why I hate cricket 🏏 Iin India, India literally sucks all this fan following and support to only a couple of players, our chapri audience really thinks cricket is played between two players, all the fanbase of Kohli, such cheap people,
India is a developing country but with this cheap mindset India will always be developing. Never developed.
Our society sucks
Sagar, where's the Nepo interview??????? pleasee feed me some Nepo intervieww
Feed me 😭
cool to see chess players out of the board
LOGICAL LOGICAL LOGICAL.
Hikaru = Arrogant guy. Those who have followed chess long enough they know
Hikaru has made the mistake of overly priotizing numbers. Sitting at home on your chair playing top class bullet is surely gonna gather millions of views, however when you consider legacy for hundreds of years to come, those millions of meaningless views from random noobs don't hold the same weight as being the world chess champion. I am absolutely positive Viswanathan Anand has made much much bigger impact on future generations than Hikaru ever will with his "influencing". At this rate he's gonna end up inside his four walls 24/7 playing minecraft just for the views - instead of sacrificing the numbers to achieve greatness, create something unique and leave an indestructible mark. I personally prefer 1 minute of Gukesh interview, showing his true soul and personality of a champion, than 3 hours of mindless online blitz flagging FMs left and right, followed by reading memes on reddit, fake laughing while pretending to understand them in order to seem hip and cool.
We know why honest came in title
(yesterday samays chat with tania)
I didn't understand can you explain
Yea I don't understand wither, what did they say?
Im curious
@@sidheshbankar2799 They were talking about that hikaru said i care more about the streaming and influence of chess than this tournament, then tania said he ofc didnt mean that he cares about tournament. but as we samay was jokin about it and askin tania that you call hikaru a liar then?(joke)
sagar's drip though!
Only Magnus is made the huge money except for Hikaru and Gotham chess in the Botez sisters lol. No other sport are the elite paid so little
