Mumbai: Movies Now will showcase films of Charlie Chaplin under the initiative called ?Chaplin Chapters?.

The initiative begins with ?Modern Times? on 8 March at 9 pm where he takes viewers through the journey of industrialisation. He turns against modern society, the machine age and progress. He frantically tries to keep up with a production line, tightening bolts! He is selected for an experiment with an automatic feeding machine and a number of mishaps follow one after the other.

Another movie that will be showcased is ?The Circus? on 15 March at the same time. This movie was written and directed by Chaplin himself It?s a story of a penniless and hungry Tramp (Chaplin) who is mistaken for a pickpocket and is chased by both the police and the real crook (the latter having stashed a stolen wallet and watch in the Tramp?s pocket to avoid detection). Running away, the Tramp stumbles into the middle of a performance and unknowingly becomes the hit of the show.

One of Chaplin?s most commercially successful films, The Great Dictator, will be showcased on 22 March.

?Chaplin Chapters? is presented by Airtel and powered by Nestle ? Maggi Juicy Specialz in association with ICI Dulux, Johnson?s baby top-to-toe wash, LIC, Head & Shoulders, Parle Agro and Standard Chartered.
