CANES in hand and bowler hats atop their heads, more than 100 Charlie Chaplin impersonators tramped through the streets of a small port town in western India to celebrate the birthday of the Hollywood silent-film legend.
Chaplin has an odd resonance in this industrial town. Surrounded by salt flats bordering the Thar desert, Adipur's only claim to fame is the parade - now in its 40th year - to honor the filmmaker and actor known for his "Tramp" character.
