    Must watch!

    The movie is well directed and has very important message to share with society. The way undertrails are living their life's in the jail without any conviction is frightening and shocking.

    Every person deserves freedom and it's birthright..

    Don't miss it

    The film revolves arounds the life of undertrials in Indian jails. Fresh for Indian movies and something that producers like Aditya Chopra would not do otherwise. Habib Faisal is back with another bunch of fresh actors, but this time they don't really look like fresh actors. Power packed performances by all seven of them but Anya Sigh stands out of all. Brilliant tight screenplay. Music could have been much better considering it as a musical film but it wont upset you. Somewhere romance in the story seems lacking and the transition of Sanju (Aadar Jain) from being a pessimist to an optimistic guy is all of sudden. Too much of punjabi used in the film to keep it real but subtitles could have helped. Anyway overall this one is fresh out of the box. Low marketing might hit the film but its defiantly a must watch. Long way to go Anya.

    Feel Good movie.

    A very nice story for music lovers and for those who love their freedom. From beginning to end, you will never feel bored. A must watch movie you can plan with your family.

    How I skip this movie?

    Seven youngsters form a band in prison and become popular through social media. When talking does not work, they eventually take resort to music to speak out against the system and jail authorities.

    Literally bang every character and screen presentation was osm . Even that songs got goosebumps.every actor nailed it. But why this movie not get hype 💥 I don't but this movie's really good. Every song added into my playlist. Every one should apriciate to those who involved in this Qaidi Band is a very earnest and occasionally preachy heart-in-the-right place movie. It's aimed at "the youth", that catchall category of viewers whose tastes and politics (or their lack) drive the business of cinema these days. To these young people, Faisal has an important message.

    Great Movie, entertaining

    Very nice movie, it keeps your entertained for much more of the duration. Actors have performed well and overall story also is very good and points out a real issue within our system.
