Kanu Behl, Dibakar looking forward to Titli's Cannes debut

Director Kanu Behl is looking forward to present his debut film 'Titli' in the Un Certain Regard category, a parallel section, at the Cannes film festival.
The film, which has backers in Yash Raj Films and Dibakar Banerjee, stars Ranvir Shorey, Amit Sial and Shashank Arora. It is the lone title from India at Cannes this year.
Behl said working on the film has been a "difficult but exciting" journey.
"Titli is a film about family, roots, and the ghosts within our most intimate relationships. It's an extremely personal film. The journey to the core of the film has been a difficult and exciting one and I'm looking forward to it going out into the world," Behl said.

Producer Dibakar Banerjee said the film is a "raw, intense and universal Indian narrative."
"Titli's success at Cannes is the way forward for Indian cinema. A hot new talent, one of India's biggest studios and an independent production house pooled their strengths to present a raw, intense, rooted, yet universal Indian narrative to the world.
"Not Bollywood but simply world cinema from India. This would be India's Camera D'Or contender for this year. A proud moment for me and all of us at DBP and YRF. Kanu Behl's smashing debut will make India proud," Dibakar said.
Producer Guneet Monga, who has been promoting 'Titli', said the film will "truly put India on the global map".
