Speaking at the audio release function of Sunil's Jakkanna, Megastar Chiranjeevi was at his humble self. "Three days ago, Sunil called me up and requested me to be the chief guest at this event. As I would be busy with the shoot of my film, I wanted to say no. But the affection he showers on him didn't let me say that. I came here by postponing my film," Chiru said.

He further said, "Sunil always tells me that he has reached this stage by performing my dances on stage. When a fan grows in life, the first person who feels happy after his/her parents is I. Sunil today has become a role model for many. He is an exemplar who has shown that perspiration always pays."

Further talking about Sunil's style, the Megastar said, "He has succeeded in portraying heroism through comedy. He is one of the best dancers we have in the industry."

About Jakkanna, he said, "I have no doubt that Vamshi Akella has made a very good film. One finds everything - family drama, romance, comedy, action - in the trailer. Dinesh has given a very good output. There are films whose RR was stopped because of his absence. Mannara Chopra should become big. Sunil should get a blockbuster."

Surely, it was a dream come true for Sunil that his favourite matinee idol described him as one of the best dancers in the industry.
