Hi Rohit,
I think learning a variety of serves is good for this purpose. Most players have two or three serves that they use most of the time. Having a different serve can be used as a change up.
Just varying the placement or the speed of a serve can be a surprise as well. Try varying these two things as well.

The classic example of the surprise serve was in the finals of the women's Korea open 2013. Seo hyo won had been serving the same basic backhand serve the whole match. On the very last point, match point no less, she threw in a reverse BH serve and her opponent Kasumi was utterly fooled.
