Actress Katrina Kaif, who is reportedly dating Ranbir Kapoor, says she believes in loving passionately and calls herself a "die-hard romantic" person.

The actress hopes her next film "Fitoor" puts out this message.

"Yes, I'm a die-hard romantic person. I hope it comes out from the film. May be that's the intention," Katrina said here.

"Fitoor", which means passion or obsession, is the story of a budding artiste Noor (Aditya Roy Kapoor) who falls in love with Firdaus (Katrina). And the trailer paints a whimsical picture with snow and a scenic backdrop. It also hints at the politics surrounding Kashmir.


The film also stars Tabu, who is seen as Katrina's mother in the film.

Talking about her character, Katrina said: "I think it really helps if you believe in love that way. And that's the way I see love. I think love is life, love is passion and inherently I believe that. So for me, I think without that belief and conviction, of course it's hard to portray a character passionately."

Based on Charles Dickens's novel "Great Expectations" and directed by Abhishek Kapoor, "Fitoor" is slated to release on February 12.
