The official collection of Malayalam actor Dileep's Ramaleela has been revealed. Produced by Tomichan Mulakuppadam of Mohanlal's Puliurugan maker, the political thriller marked the directorial debut of Arun Gopy. Ramaleela also starred Prayaga Martin, Siddique, Kalabhavan Shajon, Vijayaraghavan and also saw the Malayalam comeback of veteran Tamil actress Radhika Sarathkumar.

Upon its release, Ramaleela had taken one of the best openings of the year to become Dileep's career-best opener. The film drew many house-full shows and brought back the audience to the cinemas across the Kerala.

However, entire film audience have been waiting all these days to know the official collection of the Dileep starrer.

And on Wednesday, Tomichan Mulakkupadam announced the Ramaleela collections as a whopping Rs. 55 crore worldwide. The film also turned out to be the biggest Malayalam blockbuster of the year. What's more? Ramaleela also emerged as the all-time fifth blockbuster in the history of Malayalam cinema after Mohanlal starrers Pulimurugan, Drishyam, Oppam and Nivin Pauly's Premam.

Ramaleela is still screening in a good number of screens across the Kerala as well. While the film is set to cross the 50 theatrical days, it will be aiming to cross the lifetime collections of Rs. 60 crore set by Premam at the Box Office worldwide.
