Thanedaar (transl.Station House Officer) is a 1990 Indian Hindi-language action film, produced by Sanjay Ray and Sudhir Roy under the Shiva Arts International banner and directed by Raj N. Sippy. It stars Jeetendra, Jaya Prada, Sanjay Dutt, and Madhuri Dixit with music composed by Bappi Lahiri.[1] The film is perhaps most remembered for the hit song Tamma Tamma Loge and its quirky dancing moves. It was the 23rd time that Jeetendra and Prada paired together and the third pairing of Dutt and Dixit, who went on to star in 7 films together including big box office blockbusters Saajan (1991) and Khalnayak (1993). Thanedaar was the fourth highest-grossing film of 1990.[2] The film is a remake of the Tamil movie Anbukku Naan Adimai (1980).[3]
