New Delhi:
While many were expecting another romantic comedy from Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut after the hugely successful Tanu Weds Manu Returns, the actress says her forthcoming film Katti Batti is an 'intense' film, which does not focus on live-in relationships at all.

"Katti Batti is not based on live-in relationships at all. People are assuming many things about this film. Live-in is one of the stages that the lead pair are going through and probably it is a part of the film for three minutes that too is through a song. So, Katti Batti is not about live-in and I myself don't know anything about live-in so it's better I shouldn't say anything on it," Kangana, who was here on Thursday to promote the film, told IANS.
The actress also said that she played the 'most intense character' of her career in the Nikhil Advani-directed film.
"This has been the most intense character I have ever played. The promos and songs of Katti Batti don't give the idea about the intensity that the film carries. I suggested to the makers if we can take out promos that can tell the kind of depth and intensity that Katti Batti holds, but they didn't take any of my advice and everything looks happy go lucky. But Katti Batti is a very intense film," she said.
The actress also said that her character in the film was a 'revelation'.
"Payal, my character in the film is going to be a revelation for me. This character has changed me forever. I'll never get to play such type of an intense character in my whole life," she added.
Katti Batti, which marks the return of actor Imran Khan after a hiatus of almost two years, is based on new age relationships. The story of the film starts like a romantic comedy but turns into a thriller with a mystery element and a mature love story.
"Katti Batti is going to be very cathartic for people who like larger than life love stories like The Notebook, Kal Ho Naa Ho or Titanic, which leaves you lost but doesn't leave you with the feeling of lost," Kangana, who received a National Award for her lead role in Queen earlier this year, said.
Katti Batti is slated to release on September 18.
