About robbery at Anupam’s office

The two struck on Wednesday at Anupam’s office on Vira Desai Road in the Amboli area and took away negatives of a film produced by his company and ₹4.15 lakh. They also committed theft in Vile Parle that day, a police official said. A part of the property stolen was recovered from the duo.

Anupam had narrated the incident on X and Instagram. "Last night in my Veera Desai Road office two thieves broke two doors of my office and the whole safe from the Accounts Department (which probably couldn't break) and negative of a film produced by our company which was in a box, stole. Our office has got an FIR done. And police have assured thieves will be caught very soon. Because CCTV is seen sitting in auto with both the luggage. May God give them wisdom. This video was made by my officers before the police came!" his caption read.
