I am very proud to say that he was my classmate in Loyola, Chennai. What a simple personality he was as then he was the national champion that time. He never use to show off like other sportsperson when they achieve in big arena, I also would like to read his inspiring book.

Does humbleness, down to earth, Loyola, Chennai make a chess champion? Sorry, I just lost his point. I am just trying to understand whats that extra that makes him a cut above the rest when it comes to chess. Its certainly not the above qualities. There are millions around who lead simpler lives with all the above qualitites mentioned by our friend even if they are not part of Loyola or Chennai. Lets at least be fair to them, shall we?
