While "Fanaa" is heading for its third week of playing to packed audiences across India, the nearly 180-minute movie has been released in only a single theater in the city of Jamnagar, in Gujarat.

The two movies are the Hindi film "Fanaa" and the "Da Vinci Code," which endured a delayed opening in India, and has now been banned in various states across the country due to the fear of violent protests by the minority Christian community.
Both, however, have turned into box-office hits. Two movies that were recently released on the same day across India have run into censorship problems.
