Story

The film opens with the family of Arun Chatterjee, who lives with his wife, Riya, and baby son, Aladin. When out on a holiday, Arun is attacked by a gang searching for a magic lamp, which Chatterjee has hidden somewhere. Arun and Riya Chatterjee are murdered; Aladin is raised by his grandfather. After his granddad's death, a now grown-up Aladin Chatterjee (Ritesh Deshmukh) lives in the fictional city of Khwaish. He is lonely, and has been bullied by Kasim (Sahil Khan) and his gang members since his childhood. His life changes when Jasmine (Jacqueline Fernandez) enters the city, and the two fall in love with each other.

Jasmine gives Aladin a magic lamp for his birthday, which turns out to be the magic lamp that his father's murderers were trying to find. Aladin opens the lamp, and lets loose the genie, Genius (Amitabh Bachchan). Desperate to grant him three wishes and to seek the end of his contract with the magic lamp, the rock-star Genius makes Aladin's life rocking and lovely. Aladin is freed from Kasim's jungle, Kasim is taught a lesson by Genius, and Jasmine is in a relationship with Aladin. He is living life perfectly, until the real threat looms on the horizon - the ex-genie, Ringmaster (Sanjay Dutt).

Ringmaster is searching for the magic lamp, and with the help of his circus gang kidnaps Jasmine. Genius and Aladin realize she has been kidnapped, and soon enough, a informer explains to Aladin that Genius had murdered the rest of his family. Aladin insults Genius and leaves him. Whilst heartbroken Genius goes to rescue Jasmine. As he arrives, it is revealed that the Ringmaster is the one that actually killed Aladin's family, as he has been searching for the magic lamp for a long time, and Aladin's parents found it before him, and were punished for it. Aladin understands Genius is innocent, and arrives to help him. They succeed in rescuing Jasmine, but at the cost of Genius' magic. Ringmaster's plan is then completely revealed: he plans to use Genius' magic in a ritual to steal the reflection of an approaching comet, getting back his genie powers as a result. Genius, Aladdin and Jasmine intervene, however, and Aladdin is the one to get the comet's reflection. Genius, having regained his powers, seals Ringmaster inside a mirror and then shatters it, and Ringmaster's gang is finished as well.

In the end, the trio happily gets back to the city, Aladin and Jasmine are a couple, and after earning special superpowers from the comet, Aladin gives Kasim yet another lesson.
