Harry Potter in Calcutta, also called Harry Potter Kolkataye, is 2003 Indian Bengali language children's fantasy novel written by Uttam Ghosh and published by Nandita Publishers. It is a work of unapproved fan fiction that features the character Harry Potter in a new setting: Calcutta, India. The book was removed from publication due to legal action taken by J. K. Rowling, the creator of the Harry Potter franchise.[1][2][3]
The novel takes place after the events of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.[3] The story begins with Harry Potter traveling to Calcutta on his Nimbus 2000 broomstick at the invitation of a local boy named Junto. Upon arrival, Harry and Junto embark on various adventures throughout the city, encountering numerous characters from Bengali literature.[2]
