At the Tata Steel Chess India Festival 2024, Bristy Mukherjee, after winning the All India Women Rapid event (Event B) with a perfect 7/7 score, honored World No. 1 Magnus Carlsen by touching his feet while receiving the champion’s trophy.
Take a look at the viral clip:
The gesture, deeply rooted in Indian tradition, left Carlsen initially baffled, though he later smiled as Bristy proudly held up her trophy for the media. Prior to Carlsen, Bristy also touched the feet of the legendary five-time World Champion, Vishwanathan Anand.
