Tension at the lowest point!

Classical Mechanics Level 2

A heavy string of mass \(m\) hangs between two fixed points \(A\) and \(B\) at the same level. The tangents to the string at \(A\) and \(B\) are at an angle \(\theta\) with the horizontal as shown in the figure. The tension in the string at lowest point is?
