Akshay scouting for serious roles

MUMBAI: Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar, who has been doing comedies of late, insists he hasn't given up on doing serious roles. "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. In last few years, his name has been associated with comedies only, but the actor started his career with serious film Saugandh and later featured in action dramas such as Khiladi, Sangharsh, Ajnabee and Aakhein.
