app = Client("music_bot")
caller = TgCaller(app)

@app.on_message(filters.command("play"))
async def play_music(client, message):

    song = message.command[1]
    
    # Join call if not already joined
    if not caller.is_connected(message.chat.id):
        await caller.join_call(message.chat.id)
    
    # Play song
    await caller.play(message.chat.id, f"music/{song}.mp3")
