"This is my second film after 'Bombay Velvet' with Phantom, and it's a blast working with them. It's going to be super-exciting working together again on what promises to be an explosive film," said Anushka, who will also be seen with Aamir Khan in Rajkumar Hirani's 'Peekay'.
The 25-year-old follows in the footsteps of actor Ranbir Kapoor who will be co-producing 'Bombay Velvet'.
Being shot this winter across the northern plains around Delhi, 'NH 10' will release on September 12 next year.
