The story line was something like that. The attachment shows similar cars and are not from the movie.

Finally I got the answer, through karlosdeville's post on 21 July 2021 which had photos of the very same Singer Nine and MG YT from a 1954 Telegu movie Sangham. The movie I had been searching for is the Tamil remake of the same movie, titled "Penn", as seen in Wikipedia. Thanks to karlosdeville!

The entire car chase between the Singer 9 and the MG YT can be seen in the Tamil version of the movie (Penn) available in YouTube at the following link.
