In the video, both Gujrathi and Kataria were seen playing a pre-wedding game with two chess pieces in a round utensil full of water. While Gujrathi picked the first one, Kataria won the second time.
Reacting to this, Aruna told his husband, “Anand, he is saying they are sharing title,” following which the whole room, full of guests, burst into laughter. Gujrathi then asked Anand, “But sharing title is now the thing no?” In reply, Anand said, “If married couples have Armageddon, it doesn’t end well.”
Soon after, someone (exact person not known) from the crowd asked Aruna, if the same thing (marriage) can de done with Gukesh on the day itself. Gukesh, who was having a chat with one of the guests at a distance, was called by the person. “Everything is ready, only girl is needed,” said the unknown person behind the camera.
To which Aruna replied, “That (marriage) is okay. We can photoshop later also.” Hearing this the whole crowd again burst into laughter.
Earlier, Gukesh was nominated for the highest sporting honour – Major Dhyan Chand Khel Ratna Award, for his achievement of becoming the youngest-ever world chess champion at 18. Gukesh had defeated China’s Ding Liren in Singapore last month.
