I'm navigating from:

Main activity to Activity 2
Activity 2 to Activity 3
Activity 3 to Activity 4

through Intent.

I've also created the menu so that user can directly navigate from Activity 4 to Main activity.
But after navigating from Activity 4 to Main activity by using menu, when I press back, it takes me to Activity 3 rather than exiting the application.

I tried:

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    super.onBackPressed();
    MainActivity.this.finish();
}

But no gain. Any suggestions?
