13th August:- The mere mention of ‘Aladdin’
takes one back in time to the middle eastern era of lavish palaces and vast
deserts, flying carpets and the quest for the magic lamp. Sony SAB gears up to
take viewers on an adventure with the launch of an epic, Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga. With a generous dose of magic and mystery, this show
is based on the age-old fantasy of a 20-year old boy, Aladdin, and his trysts
with love and fate. This show premieres on August 21, Monday to Friday at 9 PM only on Sony SAB.
Produced by Nissar Parvez
and Alind Shrivastava of Peninsula Pictures, Sony SAB’s Aladdin will retell the
legendary folklore in a grander avatar, action packed, yet amusing scenarios
with a contemporary twist. The lion-hearted character of Aladdin is played by
none other than Siddharth Nigam. He is a charismatic rebel who gets
his work done promptly with his smooth-talking skills and street smartness. A
lovable rogue and a hopeless romantic, Aladdin is forced to become a thief by
his uncle and aunt owing to certain personal obligations and burdens of his
family’s past. He shares a beautiful relationship with his Ammi played
by Smita Bansal, who is his biggest strength as well as weakness.
Paired opposite
Aladdin is Yasmine, the feisty princess of Baghdad, played by Avneet Kaur.
Unlike a stereotypical princess, Yasmine is a fighter, the first one to voice
her opinion or challenge any wrong doing. A pro at self-defense with excellent
swordsmanship, Yasmine adds romance and action into the life of Aladdin.
Another important character is that of Aladdin’s father, Omar (Girish
Sachdev) who is at the crux of all the struggles that he’s been through
and has a crucial role to play in Aladdin’s future and, a pathway to his bright
future. The show will also bring alive popular peripheral characters on-screen
such as, Zafar (Amir Dalvi), the power-hungry evil Wazir, who will constantly
be at loggerheads with Aladdin, his thrifty Chacha (Badrul
Islam) and Chachi (Gulfam Khan) and Yasmine’s
parents Sultan Shahnawaz (Gyan Prakash) and Sultana (Yashu
Dhiman). Aladdin’s adventures lead him to the ‘Chirag’, a magical
lamp; this is the central motive on which the story revolves.
Neeraj Vyas, Business Head, Sony SAB,
PAL, Hindi Movies and Music, shared that Aladdin is Sony SAB’s latest offering,
keeping up the channel’s promise of providing happiness to its viewers. This
show will bring to life Aladdin’s age-old yet always refreshing tale, dotted
with characters that we have been familiar with during our growing-up years.
Aimed at setting new standards of television programming, the show will
entertain viewers with its grand sets, storytelling with a contemporary twist
and superior production quality. He is confident that Aladdin will soon develop
a loyal SAB fan following.
Nissar Parvez, Co-Founder, Peninsula
Pictures Pvt. Ltd. said that t is a privilege bringing to life the epic tale of
Aladdin, the story we have all grown up listening to. To present a modern-day
adaptation of the larger-than-life story, the largest and grandest show on

Aladdin cannot be showcased any other way. We at Peninsula Pictures are glad to
