It’s Hari Puttar!

Harry Potter fanatics are raging against Hollywood for Warner Bros studio’s decision to push back the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, but Warner Bros is lashing out at their own enemy—who are literally on the other side of the globe.

Warner Bros is suing the movie producers of Mirchi Movies, who are releasing their latest flick, “Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors,” claiming that the new film’s title infringes upon their multi-million dollar franchise.

I guess this is true in a way; Harry Potter sounds similar to Hari Puttar but while the muggle-raised wizard makes me think about Patronus spells, Hari Puttar just makes me hungry for some paneer.

The producers from Mirchi Movies claims that their Hari Puttar film has nothing at all to do with our beloved Harry—and I’m going to have to agree. A quick read of the film’s description on IMDB reveals that their Puttar is really about an Indian boy with an imaginary friend in the UK who gets left behind when the family leaves for vacation. (At least, that’s what I could get from the super complicated and meandering synopsis.) Meanwhile, two “bumbling burglars” try to break into Puttar’s house and…WAIT A SECOND, isn’t this the plot to Home Alone????

This is blasphemy! How dare they try to pass off the ingenius story of Kevin McCallister outwitting Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern during the holiday season??

That’s it. I’m suing these producers myself.
