I need create a website which should available to the users in Hindi as well as in English.

Any suggestions?

EDIT

When I try to save hindi_lang.php it's not saving just giving unicode error..

Well, CodeIgniter has a nifty class called Language. You can create language files for hindi and store it in a folder system/language/hindi

At the cost of repeating what the documentation says:

Creating Language Files

Language files must be named with _lang.php as the file extension. For example, let's say you want to create a file containing error messages. You might name it: error_lang.php

Within the file you will assign each line of text to an array called $lang with this prototype:

$lang['language_key'] = "The actual message to be shown";

Note: It's a good practice to use a common prefix for all messages in a given file to avoid collisions with similarly named items in other files. For example, if you are creating error messages you might prefix them with error_

$lang['error_email_missing'] = "You must submit an email address";
$lang['error_url_missing'] = "You must submit a URL";
$lang['error_username_missing'] = "You must submit a username";

You then load the language file like you load anything else in CI, $this->lang->load('filename', 'language');

Use the i18n library with hindi unicodes.
