“Seeing it up close for the first time… I don’t want to touch it, I want to lift it at the closing ceremony!” Gukesh could be heard saying in a small clip posted by the International Chess Federation (FIDE).
The closing ceremony is to be held here later this evening.
Gukesh is the second Indian after the great Viswanathan Anand to clinch the title that the latter held five times in his illustrious career.
The teenager had harboured this ambition since he was a seven-year-old and was eventually mentored by Anand in his journey towards the top.

“I’ve been dreaming about this and living this moment since I was 6 or 7. Every chess player wants to live this moment. I am living my dream,” Gukesh said after his win on Thursday. He is expected to return to India over the weekend to a rapturous welcome in his home city.
The youngster has enjoyed a stellar year, starting with his win in the Candidates Tournament in Canada which made him the youngest ever challenger to the world title. He then played a crucial role in India winning the men’s team gold at the Chess Olympiad in Budapest.
