Doing in right way but forget to initialize searchListener object using Fragment object which currently adding in FragmentManager. do it as:

MyFragment  mFragment = new MyFragment();
...
ft.add(R.id.content, mFragment).commit();
searchListener=(OnSearchClickListener)mFragment;

Now use searchListener object for calling OnSearchClick from Activity on Button click.

You just have to initialize OnSearchClickListener searchListener; inside your onCreate method from the MainActivity.

You should have something like this in you onCreate:

MyFragment frag = new MyFragment();
FragmentTransaction ft = getSupportFragmentManager().beginTransaction();
            ft.replace(R.id.main_activity_container, frag);
            ft.commit();

before beginning the transaction, you do this:

searchListener = (OnSearchClickListener) frag;
