Hero Sunil's 'Jakkanna' is yet another movie this year, that has received poor reviews but got humongous collections at the box office. Going by the reports, 'Jakkanna' collected a share of Rs.7.63 crores during the first weekend of its release.
Since 'Jakkanna's theatricals wee sold out to Rs.12+ crores, movie has already recovered 70% of its investment. The movie is expected to reach break even by its second weekend's run.
