I duno, i dont like the idea of celebs carrying the torch. Its an honor that should be bestowed solely upon the athletes. These celebs r fame wh**es as it is, let someome more desereving carry it.

Why does he get to carry the torch?

On what basis are people chosen to 'carry the torch' ?

Look, its not important who's carrying the flame and whose not. Its just the feeling of pride and honor to have an Indian carry the flame. As far as Athletes are concerned I hope they are busy in preparations rather than thinking of being the torch bearer.

There are thousands of athletes in this world...they could've chosen a veteran athlete who's retired from athletic life?

Maybe cause he still carries a 'torch for someone'...😆 On a serious note, who the hell knows who decides these things!! I would have liked to see a special olympics sportsman or someone who has beaten a disease like cancer and is still competing do the honors...
