Solution 1

you shall modify the collection once you get the data from the service

List<string> lstCities = new List<string>();

foreach (string city in cities)
{
   string _city = city;
    if(city == "Madras")
        _city = "Chennai";
   lstCities.add(_city);
     
}


 ddlCity.DataSource = lstCities ;
            ddlCity.DataBind();
