Legacy
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.[4] Both director and actor again teamed up for Nayakudu, which failed to repeat the success of Ankusam.[5] Ramireddy also became famous as a villain and did similar characters in other films.[6]
Srinu Vaitla said that: "Two films – RGV's Shiva and Kodi's Ankusam – deeply influenced me and directly or indirectly prompted me to become a director".[7]
Release
The film was dubbed and released in Tamil as Idhuthaanda Police, which also became commercial successful and was also a huge hit.[8]
