From Terminator, Avatar, Titanic...Everything. Loved your work."

Replying to this the Titanic director said: "Thank you. That's right. Now watching your characters...It's just like such a feeling to watch them. And the setup... Your fire, water story. Reveal after reveal. And then you show what happened in the back story. It's like all of them are a homely setup. Why he's doing what he's doing and the twists and turns and the friendship and eventually it gets to a point that where he can't even kill him when the other reverses...It's just so, so powerful." The post was captioned: “If you ever wanna make a movie over here, let’s talk.”

He then concluded saying to Rajamouli, "You can only imagine, what it must be like. Everything that goes behind the movie-making process. Because of all the work and passion you've put in... all that must be yours. All of them must be surprised, your audience back at your home. And I'm sure this must be a bonus one for you. What you must be enjoying today, the world encounters it… If you ever wanna make a movie over here, let’s talk."
