The clash between the two groups arose after one of them took objection to another man talking to his girlfriend.
According to the police official, the incident took place in Cheeta Camp in Chembur on late Monday night.
An official of Trombay police said, "The deceased was identified as Malik Sheikh while the two injured were identified as Mohammad Arman and Haider Khan."
He added, "Kaif Shah, Abdul Kadir Kanan and Amin Sheikh were arrested while a17-year-old youth was also apprehended."
"Shah had an affair with a woman and he had objected in the past when one Afzal, Malik Sheikh's friend, spoke to her," the police official said.
On Monday Shah had a spat with Afzal over the issue.
"The dispute escalated and the minor accused allegedly attacked Malik with a sharp weapon who died on the spot," added the official.
Police arrested the four accused under Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections including 302 (murder), 307 (attempt to murder) and sections related to rioting.
