Los Angeles: "Doctor Strange" director Scott Derrickson is still in awe of Indian epic fantasy film "Baahubali 2: The Conclusion".
The second part of the SS Rajamouli-directed saga released in 2017 and the filmmaker continues to be under the impact of the Telugu language film's visual effects. Derrickson took to Twitter on Wednesday to share a clip from the film which was originally posted by a user. The video shows the scene in which actor Prabhas' Mahendra/Shivudu uses a coconut tree as a cannonball to catapult soldiers to breach the gates of Mahishmati. "Behold, India's 'Baahubali 2'!" the director captioned the 57 second-long clip.
