Katrina Kaif, who gave the maximum hits among all Bollywood actresses last year, says she is having a ball doing commercial films and has no plans to venture into 'serious' cinema right now.

"I am pretty clear about what I want to do. I don't want to go down the road doing serious cinema. I am happy doing commercial films. The fun films give the audience time to escape the monotony in everyday life," Katrina told IANS in an interview here.

"I love what I am doing and there is plenty of time to do serious films. I am sure I will do them. But at this point I am really enjoying myself and I love dancing, I love the characters I am playing. Last year, I did a lot of comedies, at the same time I did Namastey London which was a fantastic character. This year, I have a slightly greater variety of roles."

She was here to promote the film Race, which will be her first release of the year. Directed by the duo Abbas-Mustan, the film also has a host of A-list actors like Anil Kapoor, Saif Ali Khan, Akshaye Khanna and Bipasha Basu.

"I don't want to give away too much about my role because it is a suspense film. My character has a lot more shades. She is something you don't expect from me. I saw the first print of the film. It is a very tongue- in-cheek kind of film and not to be taken very seriously.

"It is one of those films where good guys are really good and bad guys are even worse. It is like those heightened novels of Agatha Christie where everything is a little exaggerated. The overall experience was truly entertaining."
