Harry Potter and the Indian Connection

Like many i was also Harryed. It is a great book especially for kids and those enjoy magic. I feel there is lot of Indian Connection-few.. The Deathky Hallows(The three Brothers-questioned by Death) - In Mahabharath Pandavas were questioned by Yama(The Hindu God of Death). The Silver Doe- Reminds me of Maricha(In Ramayana) though in Ramayana the deeer form-Maricha tricks the Heros. And Nagini(Ofcourse we all know about Nagas ,in many of the Indian Stories). Least of all - people can remember Sridevi's Nagina.
