Ankusam is 1989 Indian Telugu-language action film directed by Kodi Ramakrishna and produced by Shyam Prasad Reddy. The film stars Dr. Rajashekar and Jeevitha, with Rami Reddy and M. S. Reddy in supporting roles. It was a box-office blockbuster and marked a major breakthrough in Rajasekhar's career. The film won three Nandi Awards. Ravi Raja Pinisetty directed the Hindi and Kannada remakes, Pratibandh and Abhimanyu, in 1990, featuring Chiranjeevi and V. Ravichandran, respectively. Vijay (Dr. Rajasekhar) is an honest police officer who learns that an assassin named Neelakantam (Rami Reddy) is assigned to kill his former mentor-turned-CM Master Raghuviah (M. S. Reddy) and sets out to thwart Neelakantam's plans. The film became successful at box office and provided a major breakthrough in the career of Rajasekhar. Rajasekhar's portrayal of honest and short-tempered police officer received critical acclaim and he went on to be typecast in similar roles throughout his career. The film was dubbed and released in Tamil as Idhuthaanda Police, which also became a huge hit. Both director and actor again teamed up for Nayakudu, which failed to repeat the success of Ankusam.
