Anand Mahindra's 'greatest compliment' post for Gukesh

Anand Mahindra, who has been vocal about Gukesh's previous perfomrances, has praised also his composure."Carlsen’s visible frustration at the end wasn’t just a tantrum — it was the greatest compliment the World Champion could receive from the GOAT," he said."No fist pump. No smirk. Gukesh didn’t need one. His silence roared louder than Carlsen’s exit," Mahindra added.The chess community has also lauded Gukesh's win as a significant moment, not just for his personal career but for Indian chess as a whole.
