Actor Akshay Kumar has ruled out the possibility of his wife Twinkle Khanna returning to movies in the near future.

"I don't think she is interested in doing films. At least not in the near future, " Akshay, who was in the capital to promote his forthcoming comedy "Khatta Meetha" that also stars Southern actress Trisha, told reporters here Friday.

Last seen in "Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega", Twinkle retired from the film industry after marrying Akshay in 2001. She has been doing interior designing since then.

Most recently Twinkle was seen in a television commercial for a mobile handset.
