About burglary at Anupam Kher's office
The burglary occurred on Wednesday at Anupam’s office on Vira Desai Road in the Amboli area, where the thieves stole the 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 the duo.
Anupam recounted the incident on X and Instagram, saying, "Last night, two thieves broke into my Veera Desai Road office, broke through two doors, and stole a safe from the Accounts Department (which they probably couldn't open) along with the negative of a film produced by our company. An FIR has been filed, and the police have assured us that the thieves will be caught soon. CCTV footage shows them sitting in an auto with the stolen items. May God give them wisdom. This video was made by my officers before the police arrived!"
