Irish Baba - An Interview With The Cast & Crew Behind The Film

In this episode we’re joined by the creative team behind Irish Baba — director Vivek Srikumar, actor, writer and producer Sree Vallabhaneni, and cinematographer Michael Benson. Irish Baba is a sharp satirical comedy that follows a self-proclaimed spiritual guru living in Ireland and his accomplice Namita, as their world of belief, deception, and manipulation begins to unravel. What starts as a story rooted in charisma and faith quickly evolves into a tangled web of money, power struggles, and unexpected twists — exposing the fragile line between spirituality and exploitation. In this conversation, the team discusses how they balanced satire with storytelling, the inspiration behind the film’s world and characters, and the visual approach that helped bring its comedic yet unsettling tone to life.
