With the latest earnings, Call of My Life has moved ahead of films such as Gingerr, Alakada: Bad and Boujee and The Wedding Party in the all time Nollywood box office rankings. It now sits directly behind Omo Ghetto: The Saga.
The film continues to lead other titles currently showing in cinemas, including Ajosepo 2, Jayeola Monje: The Anniversary and Iwe Ala.
