Randeep wants to cash in on 'Murder' tag

Randeep Hooda hopes to strike a lottery with "Murder 3" as the previous two films of the franchise did well. But the actor admits he is not under any pressure either.

"It is my good luck that this film is titled 'Murder 3' because the first two films were very successful and I would also want to strike a lottery with this one. (But) More than that, I don't have any expectations or pressure," the 36-year-old said here Wednesday in an interview.

He asserts the pressure is only on the filmmakers.

"They (Bhatts) titled it 'Murder 3' and the pressure is on them. I have done my work and it is over," Randeep said.

"Murder 3" is the third film of the franchise, which began with the 2004 film, which starred Mallika Sherawat and Emraan Hashmi. The second instalment, featuring Emraan opposite Jacqueline Fernandes, released in 2011.

The new film is directed by Vishesh Bhatt, Mukesh Bhatt's son, features Aditi Rao Hydari and Sara Loren. It hits theatres Feb 15.
