Rajavinte Makan () is a 1986 Indian Malayalam-language gangster film directed and produced by Thampi Kannanthanam from a screenplay by Dennis Joseph, based on the 1980 Rage of Angels by Sidney Sheldon. It stars Mohanlal as crime boss Vincent Gomes, and also features Ratheesh, Ambika and Mohan Jose in supporting roles. The film revolves around the rivalry between an underworld don, Vincent Gomes and the Home minister, N. Krishnadas. Kannanthanam's 1985 film Aa Neram Alppa Dooram was commercially unsuccessful, jeopardising his career. This led him to create his own production company, Sharon Pictures. It was shot extensively in and around Ernakulam. Filming began in early-1986, and took about one month to complete. The film was shot with a relatively small budget compared to films at the time as Kannanthanam was in financial crisis at the time. The soundtrack was composed by S. P. Venkatesh, cinematography was handled by Jayanan Vincent, and was edited by K. Sankunni. Rajavinte Makan was released on 16 July 1986, and became a commercial success, running for 100 days in theatres. It was a turning point in Mohanlal's career, as it catapulted him into superstardom in Kerala. It was remade in Tamil as Makkal En Pakkam, and in Kannada as Athiratha Maharatha, with Ambika reprising her role in both the versions. It was also remade in Telugu as Ahuthi and in Hindi as Kanwarlal. Plot The story begins with Krishnadas becoming the Kerala Minister of Home Affairs.
