This strange home-made Dune buggy appeared in a lot of films. More recently (or not so recently) in the Zee TV series of 1992 called "Commander" ...... where a popular actor from Marathi TV and films, Ramesh Bhatkar (now deceased-RIP ) played the lead character of a private investigator.
This car featured in almost every episode of the show as his personal run about and the show was apparently very popular. i remember this from the posters of this show and was so intrigued that i also saw one episode. Both, the car as well as the show didnt cath my fancy and that was the last of it. But i remembered this car, which says a lot about the impression it left on me. I will refrain from saying whether the impression was good or bad

We see a 1956 Plymouth that we also saw in the movie 'Kairasi'. I believe the car belonged to actress Saroja Devi.

Jaan Hatheli Pe (1987)

A post 1967 Beetle takes a big beating in this film, falling off busses, driving through subways and the like. At some point an older car is also used for some scenes. The car was also seen in the film 'Shaque'

A rare choice for a typical 'baraat' car, a Ford Anglia coupe that has been chopped.
