Viswanathan Anand Sings Along At Sting's Concert In Mumbai, Viral Video Takes Internet By Storm

Viswanathan Anand shared a video of himself singing along at Sting's concert in Mumbai. The video has since then gone viral on social media with fans getting to see the "unseen side of Vishy".

While India's Chess Grandmaster Viswanathan Anand has a very serious and studious public image, the video of the 54-year-old singing alongside musician Sting at a concert in Mumbai has taken the internet by storm. Fans are plesantly surprised to see Anand being a fanboy and not shying away from enjoying the music, just like most other music lovers would do at a concert. 

The video was shared by Anand himself on his social media account. "When I was very young, songs like "Every Breath You Take" and "Roxanne" by The Police made a huge impression on me. Fast forward to now, and I can say I know most of their songs and Sting's solo albums as well. They've been a constant on my playlist over the years," he wrote along with the videos and a picture that he shared.

"It was nice to catch Sting live in Mumbai, and it was a delight! What's on your playlist that keeps you inspired?" he added in another post on the thread on X (formerly Twitter).
