Garden shrub, 3-4 ft; was seen growing in a huge pot; no stem, leaves sprang from very close to the ground.
The ?flower / inflorescence was silver in color (as seen in images).
The leaf margin had small spines; leaves stiff, smooth surface and curved laterally.

Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise please.
Some earlier relevant feedback:
“Bromeliaceae. Some of the so called Cat's Claw.

“Could this possible be Bromelia balansea, Mez. or Bromelia pinguin. I came across the description of Bormelia balansae in Aima's book Pg 64 as follows: " A large dense and vicious terrestrial rosette about 3 ft. tall, used for fencing; stiff green leaves with dangerous hook spines facing both directions; center turning red before bloom; flowers white, in paniculate inflorescence forming branches of small.ovoid, orange yellow fruit with pineapple flavour. Can be easily confused with B. pinguin, but balansae has broad sepal tips, while pinguin has needle-like sepal tips and loose inflorescence." from Rashida ji.
