As the biggest sporting extravaganza in the universe, 'The Olympics' has begun. On this occasion, we checked out how clued in our tele stars are about 'The Olympics'. Well, well, well...sadly not many of them seem to be really clued in. Read on?

Sukirti Khandpal?

Message to Team India at Olympics ? I just wish all of them do really well. But I think participation is more important and representing internationally is a great thing. My best wishes to everybody and I hope them to come out in flying colours.
Favourite player ? Sania Mirza
Favourite event ? There are too many but the running race catches my fancy.
Number of medals India would bring home ? All of them! It is an asset to our country.

Vibha Chibber?

Message to Team India at Olympics - We have very good players representing at the international level. I just hope them to do well.
Favourite player ? I really don?t follow sports. But my favourite sports person in general is Sachin Tendulkar.
Favourite event ? Cricket
Number of medals India would bring home ? I pray that they get at least 20 gold medals.

Chaitanya?

Message to Team India at Olympics - I just want to say that they need to prepare well and give their best.
Favourite player ? Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore, the shooter, I like his consistency.
Favourite event ? Gymanistics interests me.
Number of medals India would bring home ? I don?t know and I can?t say but I hope they get all the medals. Each one is strong in something and I think we are good at Hockey, Wrestling and Shooting.

Rajan Shahi?
Message to Team India at Olympics ? I have a different view, which may not go very well in the positive sense. I am not being radical or derogatory about anything or anyone. We need to match to the world standards and see whether that is possible. We should play what we are good at, like cricket. Representing at the international level is not a joke and returning with few medals does not show really well. So much money is spent and it goes wasted. I think that the players have to be really groomed and then be sent to represent internationally. All said and done, I hope they do well./>Favourite player ? I am not aware about what is happening since I stopped watching.
Favourite event ? Gymanstics and water sports
Number of medals India would bring home ? No idea

Kinshuk Mahajan?

Message to Team India at Olympics ? I hope they make us proud and I wish them best of luck.
Favourite player ? P.T. Usha
Favourite event ? Swimming
Number of medals India would bring home ? All that they can.

Krystle?

Message to Team India at Olympics ? Do well, be confident but not over-confident and rock it.
Favourite player ? I don?t have a fancy for sports.
Favourite event ? Swimming
Number of medals India would bring home ? No clue but I hope they bring all the medals.

Karuna Pandey?

Message to Team India at Olympics ? I want to say that the players have to give their 100% and not worry about winning or losing.
Favourite player ? I don?t have the time to watch sports.
Favourite event ? High jump
Number of medals India would bring home ? It is unpredictable but I hope they get all the medals.
