अंतरक्रियात्मक or अंतरक्रियाशील
Explanation:
Interactive is a new concept for Hindi for which a term does not exist perviously.

Therefore we have before us two choices. Coin a new term, दी use the term as it is with minor phonetic adjustments to suit Hindi phonetics, in which case it will over time become a part of our language like so many other words like bus, station, police, etc.

If you adopt the first alternative. You will first see if there are terms of similar structure in Hindi and if they do, adopt the same structure for this term.

In Hindi we already have terms for inter-national, inter-relationship, etc., where अंतर is used for inter.

Therefore, we can coin a new term अंतर-क्रियात्मक of अंतरक्रियात्मक or अंतरक्रियाशील etc.

At first glance these terms may seem quite artificial and ugly, but by frequent usage they will become accepted over time.

The other alternative is to use इंटरएक्टिव as Dr. Rajesh Srivastava has suggested. But this is not an elegant solution and does not contribute in any way to the development of our language.
