"Emraan Hashmi was approached. But this film was a woman-centric film and according to Emraan, This film doesn't jump into a 100 Crore Club ambition as this one does not have the huge Hero-Villian fight in the end. Plus this film was more from a woman's point of view." said Mahesh Bhatt.
But the Murder 3 actor Randeep Hooda doesn't have a clue about the maker's approaching the Serial Kisser before casting him. Randeep quickly adds "I have no clue about Murder 3 being offered to Emraan Hashmi. If Emraan refused the film, I think it's his loss."
Murder 3 has been passed by the Indian Censor board with a U/A Certificate and releases worldwide this week.
According to Mahesh Bhatt, The film explores the relationship of lovers and questions the romantic-side of a Lover. The film is adapted from a Spanish Thriller The Hidden Face. Apart from Randeep Hooda, The film also stars Aditi Rao Hydari and Sara Loren from Pakistan.
