d3 doesn't look good to me: 1...d3 2.cxd3 Nc5 3.Be2 Nxd3 4.Qb3 and it's hard to
tell which is less bad 4...Nxc1 or Nc5. In both cases white initiative with
black behind in development. If black trades queens the game may be over
quickly. I'll bet Anand in this position will think of an interesting way to sac
the d-pawn.
