WIM Raghavi Vishnu Prasanna is one of the most accomplished Woman International Masters in India. She has a rating of 2290 and at the same time she is also a MBBS doctor, pursuing her masters in ENT. She works nearly 12-16 hours a day in a government hospital curing patients and trying to make this world a better place to live. Of course, she misses her first love - the game of chess. In this interview with Raghavi we speak to her about how she balanced her education and chess, what are her future plans, does she work with her husband GM Vishnu Prasanna and a few words about her most talented ex-student Pranav Venkatesh. As Raghavi puts it: A blunder in chess leads to just a loss, but a blunder in medicine could lead to a loss of life! Such are the stakes!
