Police Matthu Dada is a 1991 Indian Kannada-language action film, directed by Thulasi-Shyam and produced by R. F. Manik Chand and K. Nithyanand.[1] The film stars Vishnuvardhan, Sangeeta Bijlani, Roopa Ganguly and Srinath. The film has musical score by Bappi Lahiri.[2][3] The film was simultaneously made in Hindi as Inspector Dhanush with slightly different supporting cast. While the Kannada version made fair buck, the Hindi version was a major dud at box office.[4]
