In his promotional tour, Joe Russo spoke about his tryst with Indian cinema and how Rajinikanth-Aishwarya Rai Bachchan film Robot (Enthiran in Tamil) inspired the climax of Avengers: Age of Ultron, which released in 2015.

While in the country, the director had shared his experience watching Indian movies, and spoke about how it shared an integral part during the filming of Avengers: Age Of Ultron.

Although the film was directed by Joss Whedon, Joe Russo, who directed Avengers: Infinity War with his brother Anthony Russo, shared how one scene in Age Of Ultron was inspired by the 2010 Rajinikanth movie Enthiran aka Robot. The Tamil film, co-starring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, had one shot where several mini robots of Chitti who came together to make one giant robot, Chitti, was also inspired to be added in the Ultron as Joe shared that several Ultrons were supposed to build on giant Ultron.

“Interesting story, that I think will be a really good headline tomorrow,” Russo said, “is that Robot almost influenced the climactic moment in Avengers: Age of Ultron.” Launching into an animated description, he continued, “So you know, in Robot, where all the robots form a snake? All the Ultrons in Ultron came together to form a large Ultron. It was a sequence that was directly influenced by Robo” he said.
