A court in India has postponed the release of a film entitled Hari Puttar, after complaints from the makers of the blockbuster Harry Potter films.
Hollywood company Warner Bros has filed a lawsuit against all parties involved in the production and distribution of the Hari Puttar film.
It has been quoted as saying the the title of the Indian movie is confusing.
Mirchi Movies, the makers of the Bollywood children's film, have denied the accusations.
It told the BBC that India's Hari Puttar had nothing to do with the Harry Potter wizard movies, to which Warner Bros owns the rights.
Mirchi says that Hari is a popular Indian name, and Puttar means 'son' in Hindi and Punjabi.
The Indian film tells the story of a 10-year-old boy who moves to England with his family and becomes involved in a plan to save the world.
The Indian production house says the name of their film was registered in 2005.
But the legal proceedings mean that scheduled release of Hari Puttar has been postponed.
It was meant to hit cinema halls on Friday, but has now been pushed back to the end of this month.
