What car could that be? A Daimler perhaps?

Not sure but maybe a Fiat 507, the hood ornament looks like something of a Fiat.

It does have Daimler characteristics. The wheels (especially hub on the spare) is not quite Daimler.

Its funny to see all old photographs where people were eager to sit anywhere outside on top of the car (bonnet, fender, boot, literally anyplace they could clamber onto)

In my notes I have written that BMX 2032 makes an appearance in an older movie 'Sangam' (not the 1964 blockbuster). However I just cannot seem to find it now, shall continue to try. Hope I haven't noted the name wrong. Fingers crossed.

I finally found the reference, it was shared here (Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars)by our dear KartikeyaL

By a quirk of fate, the same car (probably in later times) is seen in an old magazine from the 1980s.
