When You Stop Playing For A While,

My Dad Sacrificed Many Things In Life For Me. He Abandoned A Very Promising And Lucrative Career Of An Army Officer Just So That He Could Continue Helping Me With My Chess And Accompanying Me To Tournaments.

If People Will Be Interested In Me, They Will Be Interested In Chess Also.

Chess Is Changing. I Hope Chess Is Getting More Popular, More Spectacular.

It's A Shame To Be The Face Of Chess And To Play Chess Badly.

I Have Never Been A Professional Model; I Have Had Some Modeling Sessions.
