"I have not put a full stop on serious roles. I am still waiting for something that excites me. I did 8X10 Tasveer no one came to see it. so I am looking for a role that attracts more people than 8X10 Tasveer," Akshay told reporters here Friday.

He was here to promote his film Khatta Meetha, which is releasing Friday. Directed by Priyadarshan, the comedy will see Akshay playing a contractor and he was dressed like one for the press meet.
