‘Titli’ – the Yash Raj film showcased at 22 festivals

‘Titli’ is a film that has been showcased in 22 different festivals including at Cannes and is the story of a Delhi based family. Directed by Kanu Behl and co-produced by Dibakar Banerjee it is a product of Yash Raj Films.
The actors are Ranvir Shorey, Amit Sial, Lalit Behl, Shashank Arora and Shivani Raghuvanshi who play the main roles.
This has been reported in indianexpress.com dated 30 September 2015.

The film has received numerous awards but, in the opinion of Banerjee, attaching a ‘festival’ tag is seen as a kind of obstacle regarding the perception of the film. One section of audience, distributors, and marketing team associate ‘festival film’ with boredom. They get scared as soon as they hear the word ‘festival’ and wonder if the film will bore you or irritate you.
The first trailer of ‘Titli’ was changed due to feedback that it did not capture the core essence of the film.
