Amid the loudspeaker controversy in Maharashtra, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) is all set to release a movie based on the issue on May 3. The regional party released the trailer of the movie titled Bhonga -- meaning loudspeakers -- on Friday.

The movie, which was completed in 2018 itself, couldn't find any takers then. However, the film entered the film festivals later and won a national award.
