Filmmaker SS Rajamouli, who just rereleased Baahubali in theatres, celebrated the Indian Space Research Organisation`s (ISRO) decision to name one of its rockets after the film`s titular character. Rajamouli called it a privilege for the entire team.

India witnessed a proud moment in space history as ISRO successfully launched its heaviest communication satellite, CMS-03, on Monday. The satellite, aimed at enhancing telecommunication and broadcasting capabilities, was carried into orbit by ISRO`s most powerful launch vehicle, which has now earned an affectionate and familiar nickname, `Baahubali`.
