Cocos2d-Android Custom font not working

Question

I am trying to use custom font in Cocos2d-Android with CClabel, I have added my font file into the assets and trying to use it by name "Faraco_Hand.ttf" and "Faraco_Hand" but its not working, I have googled around but haven't found any solution. this is how my code looks a like:

currentVideoLabel = CCLabel.makeLabel(VideosLabels[currentSelected], "Faraco_Hand.ttf", winSize.width/41);
        currentVideoLabel.setPosition(CGPoint.make(winSize.width/2, 20));
        addChild(currentVideoLabel);

If someone know this please help me.
