The actor, who shot to fame with her film Vicky Donor never thought the film will turn out to be such a huge success. "I knew the film was different, but hadn't expected this kind of critical acclaim and box-office success too," smiles Yami, whonow wants to be even more particular about her secondBollywood outing. "I have been getting offers but I want to be careful and choose a good role," she informs.
In the meantime, Yami is excited about her South film which has her playing a lawyer. Though she has to mouth dialogue in two languages, Yami is undaunted. "I would have loved to learn the languages but two months is too short a time to pick up both," she laughs.
Apart from acting, Yami is hugely fond of reading books. Before she became an actor, she would spend all her time with books and was an introvert. "I am still an introvert, I only open up in front of the camera," confesses the actor who is currently reading the Immortals of Meluha.

Nadia AminMumbai Actress Yami Gautam, who moved from television to regional movies and now has debuted in Hindi films with the unconventional yet victorious movie Vicky Donor, says movies are not about language but about context.
"You can't tag me as a regional actress. Anything I did was considering the content over the language," Yami told.
"I started my career with television and whatever work I did was keeping the content as my top most priority. Same goes with the movies, I never grabbed any work! There were a lot of offers before Vicky Donor, but I wanted to wait for the right opportunity. Side by side I was doing ads and I'm fortunate that I worked in Vicky Donor," she added.
She 25-year-old became a famous name on the TV after working in shows like Chand Ke Paar Chalo and Yeh Pyar Na Hoga Kam. Before Vicky Donor, Yami featured in Kannada film Ullasa Utsaha, Telugu movie Nuvvila and Ek Noor, which was made in Punjabi.
Praising Vicky Donor, Yami says the movie's success reflects the audiences' adulthood.
Though she is a part of showbiz, the actress, who is pursuing law from the Chandigarh University, says education is invaluable.
"I think education never goes waste. Even if I don't become an IAS officer and right now it is impossible in anyway, I would still want to complete my law. My father has said, 'If you get a Filmfare Award, I would be happy but for me your degree and education is more vital.' I never underestimated the importance of education," she said.
The sweet and graciously pretty looking face has also signed up another Tamil project titled 'Hero' and is on her way to the reputation that one reckons her with.
