Setting setOnQueryTextListener for SearchView gives null pointer exception

I have Search View in the action bar as an option menu

inonCreateOptionsMenu method I get the search view as follow

inflater.inflate(R.menu.main, menu);

     SearchView searchView = (SearchView) menu.findItem(R.id.serach).getActionView();

When I try to set setOnQueryTextListener it gives me null pointer exception.

my code is as follow

mSearchView.setOnQueryTextListener(new OnQueryTextListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onQueryTextSubmit(String arg0) {

            return true;
        }

        @Override
        public boolean onQueryTextChange(String arg0) {

            return false;
        }
    });

when i remove the listener it works fine. can someone tell what I am doing wrong.
