We already can't wait to watch Lucknow Central after these tweets.
Lucknow Central - produced by Nikkhil Advani, is inspired by the true story of convicts sentenced to life imprisonment in the Lucknow Central Jail, who start a music band.
In an interview with PTI, Farhan said, "When I heard the story, I was amazed by it. The fact that these guys go out and perform, have a proper booking counter now, blew me away. They leave the jail, go out and perform and come back. It is amazing."
The 43-year-old actor says he watched a documentary made on the inmates to understand their life and also watched them play live.
Lucknow Central will hit the screens on September 15.
