History

In 1907 Jamshedji Framji Madan established the Elphinstone Picture Palace.[3][4][5] In this theatre father of Uttam Kumar used to run the projector.[6] It was later renamed to Minerva cinema (not to be confused with Minerva Theatre). The condition of the movie theatre deteriorated over decades before the Calcutta Municipal Corporation overhauled it, and christened it Chaplin in 1980s. The theatre was demolished by the municipal corporation in 2013 after remaining non-functional for several years.[7]
