After the shoots resumed for Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga, Avneet Kaur was replaced by Ashi Singh for the role of Sultana Yasmine. In an interview with an entertainment portal, Ashi talked about the change. She said she strives to play different roles as an artist and Jasmine is very different from her previous role as Naina. 

Ashi Singh also revealed in the interview that she never thought she would act in a fantasy series. Aladdin also gave her the scope of performing action sequences for the first time on screen and is excited about it. The challenges involved in playing such a role also influenced Ashi to take up the role of Yasmine.

Talking about replacing Avneet Kaur as Yasmine in Aladdin, Ashi Singh revealed in the interview that she never wanted to replace anyone. This is because she finds it difficult to "surpass the benchmark" already set by someone for the role. However, she feels that due to a break of three months due to the lockdown, the audience might be able to accept a new face for an old character better. 

Aladdin: Naam Toh Suna Hoga has Siddharth Nigam as the titular hero Aladdin. Other members of the cast include Smita Bansal, Praneet Bhatt, Debina Bonnerjee, Aamir Dalvi and others. Avneet Kaur used to essay the role of Yasmine before she reportedly quit due to health reasons.
