Actor Akshay Kumar, who will be seen as Super Judge in the upcoming fifth season of comedy show "The Great Indian Laughter Challenge", says late legendary actor Charlie Chaplin was the greatest entertainer of all times and he carries his photograph in his wallet.
 
"Charlie Chaplin is still undoubtedly the greatest entertainer of all times. Till today, I have his photograph in my wallet. I personally believe in his saying, ‘Life is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot'," Akshay said while shooting for the first episode of the show.
