Norway Chess: Magnus Carlsen floors Arjun Erigaisi in endgame for sole lead
, the Dronacharya of endgame, showed no mercy against Arjun Erigaisi. Ruthlessness reigned in the fourth round of Norway chess meet in Stavanger on Thursday. Stunningly, the Norwegian World No. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 1 had pointed out the correct 30th move (Qe7) to the world via a confession box during the live webcast. That move would have given Arjun the best chance to draw the game. Most importantly, Carlsen also explained the logic behind it. When you are a pawn less in the queen, double rook and pawns endgame, it's better to exchange queens first. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. However, Arjun allowed a rook trade first — human answer to the pressure on the board and chaos inside. And the queen exchange never happened. It was just a marginal inaccuracy, but Carlsen turned that into a cardinal mistake. Exclusive | Arjuna Awardee Vantika Agrawal: 'People still ask, 'Chess is fine, but what do you really do?'' He went for a rook exchange and played with such beauty and precision that both Stockfish (chess engine) and Caissa (chess goddess) would have doffed their hats to the endgame masterclass from the white side of an English opening game that lasted 48 moves. It was nigh impossible to stop Carlsen when he played at high level, especially after he drew his previous two classical games against Nakamura and Wei Yi and lost both in the Armageddon. Carlsen brought his king to the centre against Arjun while facing the checks in the queen and three pawns vs queen and four pawns climax to score three points. In his only previous game in classical format against Arjun (Wijk aan Zee 2023, Reti, Zukertort Symmetrical), the first grab had happened on the 28th turn. Carlsen had won with black pieces then.

He is on eight points followed by Caruana on 7. The bottom-placed Yi (4) is not too behind in terms of points. Both Gukesh and Arjun are joint fourth with 4.5 points each. On the women's side, joint leader K Humpy could not capitalise on R Vaishali beating co-leader Anna Muzychuk of Ukraine in Armageddon. Humpy lost in the Armageddon against China's women's world champion Ju Wenjun. Both Humpy and Muzychuk are on 7 points. Vaishali is sixth and last on 3.5 points.

Aamir Khan Once Dubbed ‘Flop Actor', Today He's Worth $770 Million: ‘Don't Take Him'
Today, Aamir Khan is not only a Bollywood icon but a global star. His net worth is estimated to be around $770 million, placing him among the richest actors in the world. Aamir Khan is one of Bollywood's most successful stars today, but his journey to the top wasn't smooth. In fact, following his breakout debut in Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988), Aamir delivered seven back-to-back flops, earning him the dreaded label of a 'flop actor" before his major turnaround with the 1990 romantic drama Dil. Interestingly, Dil also starred Madhuri Dixit, who was undergoing a similar rough patch. Despite delivering a hit like Tezaab, Madhuri was also being written off due to several of her films either failing or being shelved midway. Actor Adi Irani, who featured alongside them in Dil, recently reflected on this forgotten phase during a podcast with Filmymantra Media. 'Six-seven films of his flopped in a row after Aamir Khan's first film. He was considered a flop hero… That was the case for Madhuri Dixit as well," he shared. Adi revealed that Dil only happened because director Indra Kumar couldn't get frequent collaborator Anil Kapoor's dates. Indra, who had earlier produced Mohabbat and Kasam with Anil, wanted him for his directorial debut Beta. But due to scheduling issues, Anil advised Indra to take on a smaller project in the meantime and that's how Dil came into being, with Aamir and Madhuri headlining it. 'Anil Kapoor told Indra Kumar, 'Make a small-budget film in the meantime. You'll also get experience being a director too,'" Adi recalled. Aamir Khan himself has often spoken about this phase. At a recent PVR event celebrating his films, he said, 'Back then, actors worked on 30 to 50 films simultaneously… I ended up signing 9-10 films at once. I was not happy. I would go home and cry." He added, 'The media dubbed me a 'one-film wonder.' Rightly so… I could see my career going down the drain. I was stuck in a swamp, unable to get out." But the massive success of Dil resurrected both his and Madhuri's careers. What followed was an era of dominance for Aamir, marked by critically acclaimed and commercially successful films such as Raja Hindustani, Rang De Basanti, Taare Zameen Par, 3 Idiots, PK and Dangal. Today, Aamir Khan is not only a Bollywood icon but a global star. His net worth is estimated to be around $770 million (over Rs 6,000 crore), placing him among the richest actors in the world. From being considered a 'flop hero" to earning that title, Aamir's journey is nothing short of inspiring. First Published: May 30, 2025, 22:05 IST
