Producer Sudharshan Reddy, buoyed by the great response to Sunil-starrer Telugu outing "Jakkanna", says he might collaborate with the actor again, but a good script will be of top most priority.

"We are extremely pleased with the way 'Jakkanna' has been received by the audiences. Although the film opened to divided talk on the first day, it picked up steam and managed to rake in a share of Rs 7.3 crore in the opening weekend worldwide," Sudharshan told IANS.

Directed by Vamsi Krishna Akella, "Jakkanna", which releases in cinemas on July 29, has emerged as the biggest opener in Sunil's career.

"Despite mixed reviews, the masses have lapped up the film. The response has been very positive. My three-year long wait to produce a film after 'Prema Katha Chithram' has paid off with 'Jakkanna', and I hope this association with Sunil continues," he said.

"If a great script comes along, Sunil and I might collaborate again. Both of us understand each other very well and it will definitely benefit our future association," he added.
