In the badlands of Delhi's dystopic underbelly, Titli, the youngest member of a violent car-jacking brotherhood plots a desperate bid to escape the 'family' business. His struggle to do so is countered at each stage by his indignant brothers, who finally try marrying him off to 'settle' him. Titli, finds an unlikely ally in his new wife, caught though she is in her own web of warped reality and dysfunctional dreams.
All the actors do a commendable job but it is Ranvir Shorey who is most effective. This is by far his best performance. Production designer Parul Sondh manages to transport you to the dingy backyards of old Delhi.
Morally ambiguous initially, it's the flawed characters that make this noirish crime drama compelling. They are not one-dimensional, which makes you empathise with them despite their eccentricities. Brutally real, Titli is essentially a disturbing tale on deep-rooted frustration and a sense of worthlessness that stems the criminal culture in India
