Tu Chor Main Sipahi (English: You're the thief, I'm the cop) is a 1996 Indian action film starring Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan, Tabu and Pratibha Sinha. It was directed by Guddu Dhanoa and written by Rumi Jaffery and Robin Henry.
Plot
Raja is a notorious criminal who robs wealthy people under the alias King. Inspector Amar Verma is tasked with tracking him down, and the Mumbai Police are determined to arrest him. The situation worsens when King robs the commissioner's house. Commissioner Kushal Singh gives Verma four days to arrest King, threatening to transfer him to Tandarikala, a remote location known as the graveyard of policemen, from which few officers return alive.
Verma nearly succeeds in capturing King, but is injured in an encounter involving local bandits while transporting him. Taking advantage of the situation, King abandons Verma by the roadside and heads to Tandarikala, posing as a police inspector. Upon arriving, he discovers that the village is ruled by the ruthless Thakur Gajendra Singh, who leaves elderly men to fend for themselves and abducts young men, including minors, to work for him.
In Tandarikala, Raja is surprised to encounter Guddu, a village simpleton who bears a striking resemblance to Verma. It is subsequently revealed that Guddu is actually Verma, who has followed Raja to arrest him. However, after witnessing the villagers' suffering under the Thakur's oppressive rule, Verma changes his mind. He joins forces with Raja to end the Thakur's tyranny.
Together, they defeat the Thakur and his henchmen, killing them and liberating the village from their oppression. In the final scene, Verma handcuffs Raja, and the two share a laugh.
