According to news agency PTI, the suspects Majid Sheikh and Daler Bahreem Khan were apprehended in the Jogeshwari area on Friday night. The police described the duo as serial thieves who used auto rickshaws to move around the city and commit thefts. The break-in occurred on Wednesday at Anupam’s office on Veera Desai Road in the Amboli area. The thieves stole negatives of a film produced by his company and ₹4.15 lakh. They also committed another theft in Vile Parle on the same day. A portion of the stolen property was recovered from them.

Anupam had initially narrated the incident on X and Instagram. He wrote, “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 the 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!”
