Total Internal Reflection is a scenario where a travelling wave of light strikes a boundary of a medium but at an angle that is larger than critical angle. So, the concept behind is that if the refractive index on the other side of the boundary of the medium is lower, and the light wave strikes at greater angle, so the wave is reflected internally entirely. Total internal reflection is a basic concept used in variety of applications for fast travelling of light rays. Total Internal Reflection can also be extended onto various concepts that are arose out of it like frustrated total internal reflection or evanescent waves which are the special cases of this phenomena.
