When everyone remembers Chaplin, he will be the sweet little man in a bowler hat and mustache who made us laugh. He made fun of dictators, the rich, vanity, list goes on.

He was a thoughtful genius. He made shrewd observations. One such story which made me like him a lot is https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👇" title="Down pointing backhand index" aria-label="Emoji: Down pointing backhand index">
When he met Gandhi. They discussed on India& #39;s freedom struggle & he even witnessed a prayer by him. Chaplin wrote in his autobiography
"I got a lucid object lesson in tactical manoeuvring in India’s fight for freedom, inspired, paradoxically, by a realistic, virile-minded visionary with a will of iron to carry it out”.

He acknowledged India& #39;s freedom struggle & the will & vision of Gandhi.
Happy birthday Charlie Chaplin!
Visionary genius who was ahead by a century !
