Popular Indian actors are landing roles in international projects, but actress Kareena Kapoor Khan says she is not eyeing Hollywood.

Asked if she would like to feature in a Hollywood film, Kareena said: "I have no interest in Hollywood. Today, people are watching Hindi films all over the world and in fact Hindi films are dubbed in all languages... So, it's not that they (West) don't know other actresses.

"To work in Hollywood, a different kind of energy and dedication is required, but I don't think I have that in me."

Kareena is currently busy promoting her film "Ki & Ka" -- a film which breaks gender stereotypes with its theme. The actress credits her husband Saif Ali Khan for being supportive and allowing her to do the film.

 

"Partner's support is very important. If my partner was not supportive, I would not be able to do a film like 'Ki & Ka'," she said, adding that Saif found the film "progressive" in its thought.

The movie features Arjun Kapoor as Kabir, an IIT graduate and a house husband, who has grown up wanting to be like his mother and not like his father and will be seen doing household.

On the other hand, Kareena essays Kia, an ambitious and a career-oriented woman.

Directed by R. Balki, the film is slated to release on April 1.
