Series overview

Plot

Season 1

Mallika, an evil enchantress, tries to take over the world, but her servant Hassan betrays her and turns her into a stone statue. Before becoming a statue, Mallika turns Hassan into a genie and captures him in a lamp (chiraag).

Five hundred years later, Aladdin is born in Baghdad as the only son of ruksaar and omar, the once royal guard of Baghdad, now regarded as a traitor. Though a thief, young Aladdin is a kind-hearted, funny, brave, courageous, and hopelessly romantic poet. His biggest dream is to meet Princess Yasmine of Baghdad, with whom he fell in love at first sight (when he was seven years old). He brings a magical lamp in exchange for ten thousand gold coins for the wazir of Baghdad, Zafar but gets confined in a cave. He rubs the lamp and becomes the master of the Genie of the Lamp (Hassan), (also called Chiraag ka jinn) . He names him Ginu.

Zafar tries to steal the lamp from Aladdin but fails. Aladdin strolls freely in Baghdad's streets. Princess Yasmine is forbidden to roam in Baghdad by her mother, Queen Mallika. Still, Yasmine disguises herself, wandering around Baghdad in common clothes to address the citizens' welfare. Aladdin and Yasmine often bump into each other. Yasmine dislikes that Aladdin (Kalachor) only likes (Shehzaadi) Yasmine because of her title. As such, she introduces herself as Sana. Initially, they do not get along. Over time, they become friends and fall in love.

Zafar finds Anguthi ka Jinn (Genie of Ring) in Misr. He captures Ginu, turns him into evil, and erases all of his memories of Aladdin with the help of Anguthi ke Jinn. He kills Sultan, i.e., Yasmine's father, frames Aladdin for the murder, and betrays Genie of the Ring by taking away all his powers. A heartbroken Yasmine reveals her truth to a shocked and perplexed Aladdin and orders them to bury him alive in a short square closed room without any opening and sand-filled in it. Everyone scorns Rukhsaar as earlier her husband, and now her son, both are termed as traitors.

Season 2

One year later, Aladdin is still alive, living in Misr (Egypt). His father Omar and Bulbul Chacha saved him. In the process, Omar was killed. Aladdin finds Anguthi ka Jinn (whom he calls Anguthi Chaap)(Genie of the Ring) and discovers Zafar's crimes. Aladdin vows to seek revenge. The duo finds two more genies – an uncle and a niece duo, Genie Meanie (Genie of the Bottle) and Chand Changezi (who is called ChaCha) (Genie of the Pendant).

They take up the names Ali (Aladdin), a merchant from Ankara, his siblings Sara (Genie Meanie), Chand Changezi (ChaCha), and their servant Jhumru (Anguthi Chaap) to foil Zafar's evil intentions. Gulbadan (Aladdin's cousin) recognizes Aladdin's innocence and decides to help him. He first disguises himself as Aladdin ki rooh (Aladdin's ghost) and captures his innocence in Anguthi Chaap's ring. The plan fails when Ginu's magic changes the entire recording and Aladdin couldn't prove his innocence. Later, Yasmine finds out about Aladdin's innocence and breaks down out of guilt. Soon she realizes Ali is Aladdin disguised and confesses her love to him. Aladdin reciprocates her love. Together, they turn Ginu back to his good form, and Aladdin is reunited with his mother.

Zafar intends to reach Mallika, the evil enchantress, with the Sonminar's help. He wants to rule the entire world, but Aladdin stops him. Zafar, with the help of his sister, Zeher, finds out Ali and Ginu's truth. Aladdin and his group consisted of Yasmine, Rukhsaar, Gulbadan, Ginu, Anguthi Chaap, Genie Meanie, and Chand Changezi (the Toli), bring Zafar's offenses in front of Baghdad. Zafar dies, and Zeher escapes from Baghdad. Before his death, Zafar revived Mallika with the help of Magical Mercury (Jaadui Para). Aladdin and his companions buried Zafar's body.

A month later

On the occasion of Jashn-e-Dilbar, Aladdin proposes marriage to Yasmine, and they plan their engagement. A disguised Mallika arrives and plans for destruction by using Shaitaan ka Khanjar (Dagger of the Devil). She turns Aladdin's mother into a genie with a bracelet and persuades Aladdin to bring the three parts of the Shaitaan ka Khanjar. In a fight with Zafar's sister Zeher, Aladdin unknowingly opens a prison from which a lookalike of Zafar comes out and helps Aladdin. He introduces himself as Faraz, Zafar and Zeher's younger brother, who was imprisoned by the brother-sister duo for about 10 years. Together they collect all three parts of Shaitaan ka Khanjar by which Aladdin kills Mallika, and his mother is brought back to human form.

Faraz is revealed to be Zafar, who returned to take revenge on Aladdin and Zeher, killing the real Faraz. Using the khanjar, which is now very powerful because of Mallika's blood, Zafar becomes Aiyyar Zafar (Devil's true friend). Aladdin and Yasmine decide to go to Hell to save Omar, now an angel from punishment because he had given Aladdin a piece of the khanjar. After they reach Hell, they give the Lal Sanduk (Red Box) to Zafar, which he wants, and in return, he frees Omar from punishment. Aladdin tells Omar that the real Lal Sanduk is with them, not with Zafar. Omar sends the real Sanduk to a safer place. Omar, knowing Aladdin and Yasmine can bring the Sanduk, pushes them into lava, killing them, so the Sanduk cannot be brought back. Then he jumps into the lava to punish himself. Zafar uses a spell that erases Aladdin and Yasmine's memories from the minds of Baghdad's citizens, and he becomes the Sultan. He traps Ginu in his lamp, throws him away, and makes Anguthi Chaap his servant. Chacha and Geanie Meanie die in the world of Genie. Aladdin and Yasmine are reborn in Turkistan.

Season 3

18-years-later, Aladdin is shown as the spoilt, lazy prince of Turkistan and Yasmine as a kind-hearted, ordinary thief. After Aladdin manages to catch her, they are banished from Turkistan and reach Baghdad after finding Ginu (Anguthi Chaap guides them.) They start taking lessons from Rukhsaar, the principal of Baghdad's school (Badi Ustaad). All four have no memory of their past life. Gradually, Aladdin regains his memory of his previous life.

Aladdin tricks Zafar to make him reveal where he has kept the memories and makes Zafar turn against Zeher. As time passes, Aladdin falls for Yasmine and always speaks about her, for which Ginu and Anguthi Chaap tease him. Aladdin is shocked that Yasmine was the Sultana of Baghdad. When he saves her, he realizes Yasmine is his one true love.

Aladdin tells Yasmine about Zafar and his wicked plans. He brings Zarina, a scorpion, to finish Zafar's powers and restore Baghdad's citizens' memories once and for all. Zarina stings Zafar, and all the memories he had taken away are restored while she gets killed. Aladdin is reunited with his mother Rukhsaar, his brothers Anguthi Chaap and Ginu, and his love Yasmine. After many hurdles, Zafar and Zeher are captured and jailed. Yasmine is proclaimed Sultana-e-Baghdad while Zafar and Zeher plot against Rukhsaar. Zafar and Zeher manage to escape. Later, Yasmine confesses her love to Aladdin, and both get engaged. Zafar performs a ritual and tells them a meteoroid will soon crash on Earth, and the Black Lamp (Kala Chiraag), which is present in the Lal Sanduk, can only stop that. Aladdin, Yasmine, and Zafar travel to Marakkesh to get the lamp. After a series of incidents, Zafar takes over the Black Lamp (Kala Chiraag) and its genie and becomes the master of the Black Genie (Kala Jinn). On the other side, Zeher makes Anguthi Chaap her slave, but he sacrifices himself.

Anguthi Chaap, before his death, tells Rukhsaar that Zafar can't be killed. He locked his soul in a locket hidden in Hell. Anguthi Chaap helps her to get there, and Rukhsaar gets the locket. She goes to Marakkesh to kill Zafar. Rukhsaar frees the soul from the locket, and Aladdin kills him. The Black Genie gets captured in his lamp again. He vows to escape to take revenge for his Master's death. Everything in Baghdad is well, and Aladdin and Yasmine get married. Anguthi Chaap's soul happily looks over them. But someone releases the Black Genie, and Ginu senses danger. The series ends with Aladdin and Yasmine ready to fight the evils of the world once again.
