DO not be surprised if you bump into actress Maya Karin or local badminton greats including Rashid Sidek, Cheah Soon Kit or Ong Ewe Hock in Penang this month.

They are among a star-studded cast who are filming ‘Olympic Dream’, a movie which chronicles the journey of a young badminton player who achieved her dream of winning an Olympic gold.
