Mumbai,
(ANI):
The
classic
tale
of
Aladdin
and
the
Magic
Lamp
has
undergone
a
modern-day
transformation
at
the
Bollywood
studios
and
is
all
set
to
weave
its
magic
around
the
audiences
in
the
form
of
a
new
fantasy
flick.
One
of
the
best
loved
children
stories,
which
first
appeared
in
'The
Book
of
One
Thousand
and
One
Nights'
has
been
adapted
by
film
maker
Sujoy
Gosh
to
cater
to
the
audience.
Aladdin
boasts
of
a
commendable
star
cast,
including
Bollywood
superstar
Amitabh
Bachchan
and
Sri
Lankan
beauty
queen
Jacqueline
Fernandez.
Aladdin
is
the
story
of
an
orphan,
Alaadin,
played
by
actor
Riteish
Deshmukh
who
lives
in
the
city
of
Khwaish
and
is
bullied
since
childhood
by
Kasim
and
his
gang.
How
his
life
takes
a
turn
when
he
meets
Jasmine
played
by
Jacqueline,
who
gives
him
a
magic
lamp
and
what
happens
after
that,
forms
the
basic
plot
of
the
film.
Riteish
Deshmukh,
who
has
made
a
mark
in
comic
roles,
sounded
quite
excited
to
take
a
break
from
comedy
and
do
something
different.
"Aladdin
primarily
is
fun.
It
has
romance,
action
and
adventure,
so
it
is
complete
family
kind
of
a
film.
There
will
be
funny
bits,
but
it's
not
the
kind
of
stuff
that
I've
done
before," Riteish
said.
For
Jacqueline,
who
is
making
her
debut
with
this
film,
acting
in
a
Hindi
film
was
quite
a
tough
thing
to
do.
"I
would
say
its
possibly
one
of
the
most
challenging
thing
I've
done
in
my
life.
It
definitely
was
difficult
to
learn
any
language
but
I
had
a
great
team
working
with
me.
I
had
very
cooperative
co-stars
and
very
cooperative
director.
It
just
made
it
all
the
more
easier," she
said.
The
film
seems
a
good
mix
of
magic
and
action
and
promises
to
floor
the
audiences
with
its
new
storyline.
The
film
will
release
on
October
30.
