Three years and a day back: An amateur chess player with dreams of grandmaster glory, found himself presented with the opportunity to play against the legendary Viswanathan Anand. Intimidated by Anand's prowess, Nikhil resorted to a unethical tactic – he programmed a chess engine into his smartwatch to receive move suggestions during their match. As the game unfolded, Nikhil's play was remarkably brilliant, raising suspicions in Anand's mind. Upon noticing Nikhil's frequent glances at his wrist, Anand confronted him, and the truth about the hidden chess engine came to light. Nikhil's actions were met with disappointment from the chess community. He realized that true mastery couldn't be achieved through shortcuts or cheating. The experience taught him a valuable lesson about integrity, sportsmanship, and the importance of dedicating oneself to honing skills through perseverance and hard work, rather than resorting to unfair means for personal gain.
