What happens

Adventures of Aladdin (Aladdin and the Magic Lamp) is a 1978 adventure fantasy film produced and directed by Homi Wadia. This was the last film produced/directed by him. The film was a Basant Pictures production and starred Sachin, Nazneen, Jayshree T., Paintal, Raza Murad and Sudhir. Homi Wadia turned to the Arabian Nights again for the story of Aladdin, after his earlier success with Aladdin Aur Jadui Chirag (1952). This time the film was in colour. It follows Aladdin's adventure with the magic lamp and his confrontation with the evil magician. This time the role was played by Sachin. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
