The fortunes of down-on-his-luck crooner Asfour change overnight when he discovers a mysterious lamp housing a charming genie.

But Asfour soon learns he should be careful what to wish for, as he soon realizes his heart may lie elsewhere.

Asfour wants to marry his boss' daughter Aleya, but Aleya's father rejects him because of his lower class and his lack of money. Asfour later meets a mysterious old man who advises him to go to a cave in the mountain, where he will find bliss. The cave contains a magical lamp with a female genie named Kahramana. Asfour commands her to assist him in his desire to win Aleya, but the genie has plans of her own for him.
