Here are some Reviews of Hari Puttar across the web.

…If you’re one of those who is long done with cheap imitations of super hit Hollywood blockbusters, then you better stay away as this one’s certainly not for you! The only thing that will come to your mind if you chance upon to catch this one would be - for how long will we be subject to stupid remakes and rehashes of Hollywood diasporas. … Spicezee Bureau [ Zee News ]
… The set-up is contrived. Even though approximately thirty percent of the film is a direct lift, the directors still manage to mess up every scene. To make it seem like its different, instead of a single child being left behind, a boy and a girl are left behind. It is beyond comprehension as to how in a family of ten children, the littlest, the ones most doted on, can be forgotten at home. If the Home Alone series managed to make everything believable, this film makes even the plausible look impossible… Sanskriti Media [ Aol.com ]
…The directors of this show could not put the entertainment element aptly in this movie, which was required to make it a big entertaining kiddie film. Result: A mammoth lackluster at the box office…a poor upshot in every sense of the word. Wonder…what happened to the directors when they passed this script to make the movie on..? Did they not know that today’s kid is much smarter to figure out what is good or what is bad..? … Iqbal Goher [ Radio Sargam ]
…Movie studios are big on protecting their intellectual property, which is certainly understandable — but sometimes they come down too hard. Take this new case. Warner Bros. is suing to stop the Indian release of a domestic film called Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors. Why? Because Hari Puttar is close to Harry Potter… Eugene Novikov [ Cinematical ]
… Hari Puttar is getting released this week after much controversy because of its name similarity with .. yes you guessed it right Harry Potter . Based on the promos Hari Puttar scripts looks to be a bad copy of Home Alone , earlier Bollywood werer copying scripts but showing some creatvitiy in name and tagline now they are copying everything. Creativity is going down the drain day by day… Veresh [ Crux of Bollywood ]
