"He (Hrithik) has been given tags like Greek God, Superstar, God of Dance etc but he is unaware of these tags. He is a simple person who wants to give his best and help others also get their best in the most selfless way. I am not that generous. He is very inspiring," Yami told PTI.
What surprised Yami was the simplicity of the "Jodha Akbar" star.
"We all know Hrithik as a superstar but when you meet him on sets or talk to him, he is simple, has no airs and baggage. When a big star like him has no qualms or air or mask or layer on him, it's nice," she adds.
"I have never met Hrithik socially so when I first met him on sets I told him,'Hi, I am nervous', to which he said, 'Hi, I am also so very nervous'. He said 'glad you said it, I am so relieved.' He said, 'it's good to be nervous'."
Yami is thankful to co-star Hrithik, director Sanjay Gupta and producer Rakesh Roshan for having faith in her. The film is set to open in theatres on January 25.
