Mumbai, Mar 6 (IBNS): India's Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has banned the release of 'Fifty Shades of Grey' in India.

The film is an adaptation of the best-selling 2011 novel and stars Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson as a couple in a sadomasochistic relationship.

India's Censor Board banned the film due to its sexually explicit content.
