In a nutshell, Bollywood is making a movie called "Hari Puttar", and Warner Bros is sueing. Apparently the movie in no way resembles "Harry Potter" except in the similarity of the names.

Based on this, I wonder if Charles Band ever tried to sue Warner Bros. because one of the lead characters in Troll was actually named Harry Potter...

Pure idiocy.  What a waste of money on Warner's part.

This has about as much legitimacy to it as Warner Bros. trying to sue an adult film company for making a porn called "Hairy Puter".

I could swear that 20th Century Fox actually succesfully sued to get the porn movie "Edward Penishands" taken out of circulation.

Furthermore, it feeds into many people's opinion that the USA is a bully, , and things like this make it hard to argue that our government and the people have different outlooks on things.
