Overtaking a late Baby Hindustan, like http://www.hindu.com/mp/2009/12/23/stories/2009122350200300.htm .

Eventhough I can't see two door handles I would guess that this is a 1954 Commander or Champion Regal 4-door Sedan.

Even though the grille teeth are hard to see, this is a '54 per hood ornament, side trim and enlarged bumper guards.
Not a Land Cruiser as no rear door vent windows.

Can't tell Commander vs Champion as the front fender emblem is missing.
(It would be a V-8 emblem if Commander or a circle S emblem if Champion.)

Here are some photos that can hopefully contribute to indentification:

This was used as the Deputy Superintendent's of Police (Bombay Police) car in the movie. It is led on a long chase through narrow traffic in the scenes it is used.

I was hopeful the relevant emblems would still be on the left side of the car but it never appears.

The left side of the car is never shown oddly. I guess just the way it was filmed the right was only shown in turning.

This maybe the Hindustan licence built Studebaker Champion

Hood badge looks like an 'S' rather than '8' so I'd say Champion.
