Abhishek, who was here on Wednesday to promote his upcoming film 'Housefull 3' along with his co-stars Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Lisa Haydon and Jacqueline Fernandez, said there is instead a huge demand for Indian films globally.

Asked if he is interested in featuring in a Hollywood film, Abhishek told IANS: "There is a lot hype given to Hollywood. English is just a language and nothing else. Today there is a huge demand of Hindi films globally. People from Hollywood are coming and doing item numbers and films."

Akshay added that he has no interest in Hollywood and is busy doing a Tamil film titled '2.0', along with superstar Rajinikanth. Directed by Shankar, the film is a sequel to the blockbuster "Enthiran"

"I am doing a Tamil film. I have no interest in Hollywood," Akshay added.

Directed by Sajid-Farhad, 'Houseful 3' also stars Nargis Fakhri and is slated to hit the theatres on June 3.
