if you want to manipulate the menu items on the click of the overflow button then better do this in onCreateOptionMenu — Shubham AgaRwal

Unfortunately, no.

The overflow Button is created dynamically from a private inner class of the ActionMenuPresenter, which is an internal part of the framework that places each MenuItem in the ActionBar. There's just no way to attach a listener to it.
