'Fifty Shades of Grey' banned in India
Los Angeles, March 5
American erotic romantic drama “Fifty Shades of Grey†has been banned in India.
The
country's film censors decided the raunchy film was too explicit for
India's film-hungry audiences, even after all nudity was edited out of
the film, reports dailystar.co.uk.
Malaysia, Indonesia and Kenya have also banned the controversial film, which is an adaptation of the E.L. James book.
Malaysian
censors said the film was "more like pornography than a movie" and
contained "scenes that are not of a natural sexual content".
The
film, starring Jamie Dornan as Christian Grey and Dakota Johnson as
Anastasia Steel, is the highest grossing 18-rated film in British box
office history, bringing in at least 262 million pounds worldwide since
it premiered last month.
