Talking in a recent interview, director Arun Gopy revealed that his upcoming movie 'Ramaleela' starring Dileep in the lead role, will not be a mass film. The young director said that Dileep will play the role of a non-practising lawyer, a common man who one day becomes an MLA named, Ramanunni.

He also revealed that the movie will reflect Kerala's contemporary political scenario. However, the political parties in the movie will be purely fictional. Ever since it was announced that Dileep will be playing the role of a politician, rumours were rife that Ramaleela will be yet another mass entertainer like his superhit hit 'Lion'. Talking on the same, Arun Gopy clarified that it is unfair to compare Ramaleela with other political thrillers.

Ramaleela has Prayaga Martin in the female lead along with Raadhika Sarathkumar playing the role of Dileep's mother. Ramaleela would mark Raadhika's Mollywood comeback after 24 years. Reportedly, the movie talks about the relationship between the mother and son, in the backdrop of political affairs.

Apart from Dileep, Prayaga Martin and Raadhika, the movie also has a large cast that includes Mukesh, Salim Kumar, Siddique, Vijayaraghavan, Suresh Krishna, Renji Panicker and Kalabhavan Shajon in pivotal roles. Scripted by Sachi, the movie's editing is handled by Vivek Harshan, camera by Shaji Kumar and music by Gopi Sunder. Ramaleela will hit the big screens on July 7th.
