A copy of Dan Brown's bestselling book, The Da Vinci Code, being burnt at a protest by Mumbai-based Catholic Secular Forum on May 09.
Demonstrating outside a church in the city, the Forum called upon Christians to 'fast unto death' to stop the release of its screen adaptation. The film distributors have delayed the India release, which was initially slated for May 12.
The Da Vinci Code has generated much controversy as it revolves around a clandestine society that is attempting to protect secrets about the life of Jesus Christ.
The CSF is also protesting against the film, Tickle my funny bone.
