Nginx any uri to root directory

Question

How can I make any request to Nginx server be served from fixed static page ("/html/index.html")?

For example: I want following requests to be served from /html/index.html localhost/ localhost/data localhost/data/html localhost/data/images

Nginx by default appending the URI to my root directory and is looking for it in local file system.
