A multiplex theatre in Pune cancelled the screening of the Karan Johar-produced film Wake up Sid following protests by the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) over the use of "Bombay" instead of Mumbai in it.

Local MNS leader Raje Gorde said that the theatre owner responded to the party's appeal by cancelling the screening of the film, which released today.

No untoward incident was reported in the city in connection with the MNS protest.
