Rajan P. Dev Biography

Rajan P. Dev (20 May 1951 – 29 July 2009) was an Indian film actor and stage actor. He was born in Cherthala in the Alappuzha district of the former state Thiru-Kochi (present day Kerala).

Dev expressed his disappointment on this in a magazine interview, which caught the attention of director Thampy Kannanthanam. He invited Dev to play the villain role of Carlos in his film Indrajaalam (1990), starring Mohanlal. Just like his character Kochuvava, Carlos also became immensely popular so much so that for some years since then Dev was often referred to as Carlos, much like Keerikkadan Jose another popular villain character of that time. The role of Carlos proved to be career-defining for Dev, as he was showered with villain roles in a number of films.
