Fan hospitalised for crying during 'Avengers...'

Beijing, April 28
"Avengers: Endgame", the final part of the superhero series, has so many emotional moments that people are becoming teary-eyed while watching it. But a strange incident happened in China a few days ago when a 21-year-old girl Xiaoli got hospitalised as she could not stop crying during the film.

According to Fox 8, Xiaoli cried uncontrollably in the cinema and began hyperventilating and trouble in breathing. She was taken to a hospital where she was administered oxygen to normalise breathing.

"I saw that the patient had been breathing heavily, and according to the description from her peers, her crying caused hyperventilation. We immediately gave her oxygen and relaxed her emotions by appeasement, reducing her hyperventilation symptoms," The International News quoted a doctor as saying.

Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, "Avengers: Endgame" stars Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth, among others.


Avengers: Endgame' rewrites record books in India

The star-studded film "Avengers: Endgame", which has Hollywood biggies like Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth suiting up as the world's favourite superheroes, minted a "historic" total of Rs 104.50 crore (net box office collection) in India in just two days.


It released in Hindi, English, Tamil and Telugu across 2,845 screens in India on Friday.

The Marvel Studios' film has taken the Indian box office by storm. According to the film's representatives, the movie collected Rs 61.19 crore (gross box office collection) and Rs 51.40 crore (net box office collection) on day two. Total for two days stands at Rs 124.40 crore gross box office collection (Rs 104.50 crore net box).

Trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted on Sunday: "'Avengers: Endgame' is rewriting record books. Puts up a historic total on Day 2. Eyes Rs 150 crore + weekend. No biggie from Hindi film industry has achieved the target so far."

Comparing it to filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli's magnum opus "Baahubali 2", Adarsh wrote: "'Baahubali 2' (Hindi) rewrote the rules of the game exactly two years ago. Almost everyone felt that the records attained by the film will remain unchallenged for a long, long time. But 'Avengers: Endgame' is challenging it right now."

"'Avengers: Endgame' shatters the myth that a massive screen count is the key to collect big numbers on Day 1/weekend. 'Avengers: Endgame' has released in 2,845 screens, but its occupancy is much, much higher than Hindi biggies that open in 4,000+ screens," he added.

"Avengers: Endgame", the 22nd film of Marvel Cinematic Universe, marks the end of an era that revolved around mighty heroes like Iron Man, the Hulk and Captain America. It is helmed by the Russo Brothers -- Joe and Anthony. 

During a press tour, when IANS asked whether "Avengers: Endgame" will be actor Jeremy Renner's last Marvel movie, he said: "I don't know. I feel like there is never a last thing in Marvel. Marvel is a giant universe of storytelling. I don't believe there is ever a finish line. So, I would say no."
