Yami is excited to be in the same frame with the 'Dhoom 2' star in the Sanjay Gupta project.
"I am excited. It means a lot to work with him (Hrithik). I was numb, speechless when the offer came to me. It is going to be a special film, special journey. I am looking forward to start the project," Yami told PTI.
"I am also nervous to dance and romance (Hrithik). He is a brilliant actor, best dancer, his style and attitude is amazing."
The 'Vicky Donor' actress said preparation work on the film will begin soon.
"We are deciding the look and all. We will start with workshop. We will start shooting soon," she said.
Reportedly, the movie is about a blind guy who takes revenge of his lover's brutal rape and murder.
Yami is happy with the response to her last film "Sanam Re" with Pulkit Samrat.
"We were hoping for a good response as people had loved the trailer and music. On the day of the release I was surprised with the love and attention for our film."
Yami was talking at the launch of the new range of Skecher Shoes - Skechers Burst.
"Today, as actors it's important to be associated or endorse a brand. Its (Skechers Burst) comfortable and trendy which is a great combination."
