Imphal-based engineer Sanjay Nongmaithem told IANS: “I have been following the series since its beginning in 2008 with ‘Iron Man’ so, I want to see how it culminates. My eight-year-old daughter, Gracy, is also a fan of the Avengers. In Manipur, our theatres don’t screen Bollywood or Hollywood films so we are left with no choice but to fly to Guwahati, which is nearby.”
