The trailer of YRF's new kids Aadar Jain and Anya Singh's Bollywood debut 'Qaidi Band' is out and it showcases the story of innocent under trials in Indian jails.

In the clip, the jailor (Sachin Pilgaonkar) asks the jail inmates to form a band to sing and perform on the occasion of Independence Day.

The film revolves around music and life of a bunch of kids.

The tagline of the movie reads 'Music will set them free'.

The official Twitter handle of Yash Raj Films released the trailer with the caption, "7 Prisoners. 1 Band. Music will set them free. #QaidiBand TRAILER OUT NOW! @AadarJain @Anyasinghoff @QaidiBand"

The band, which is formed by seven under trials, has one opportunity to get acquitted of all the charges and walk free from the jail. They instantly win hearts with their music and performances, and the video goes viral in no time on the internet, so much so that it becomes the new anthem of patriotism all across the country.

They are waiting for the hearing in the hope that they get acquitted of all the charges and walk free from the jail but the selfish motives of the minister drags them back to the hell they had been wanting to escape.

Written and directed by Habiba Faisal, 'Qaidi Band' is set to release on August 25, 2017.
