Our take
Documentary filmmaker Kanu Behl made his fiction feature debut with this assured and gritty noir set in the corrupt underworld of Delhi. Premiering in Un Certain Regard at Cannes, Titli empathetically shows the vicious cycles of poverty through its standout cast of largely nonprofessional actors.
