Bir Baba Hindu is a 2016 Turkish movie directed and written by Sermiyan Midyat, who also stars as the lead character "Baba". The film follows the story of a Turkish man named Baba, who was raised by a Hindu mystic in India, and his journey back to Turkey as an adult. Along the way, he faces various challenges and obstacles, including a love triangle and a gang of smugglers.

The movie opens with Baba (played as a child by Burak Satibol) and his parents on a trip to India. During their visit, they meet a Hindu mystic named Guru Baba (played by Indian actor Suresh Menon). Guru Baba takes a liking to young Baba and convinces his parents to let him stay with him and be raised in the Hindu religion. Baba's parents agree, and he spends the next 25 years of his life in India with Guru Baba.

As an adult, Baba (now played by Sermiyan Midyat) decides to return to Turkey to reconnect with his Turkish roots and explore a new part of the world. He arrives in Istanbul and is immediately met with culture shock as he tries to navigate his way through the bustling city. Along the way, he meets a young Turkish woman named Nalan (played by Nicole Faria), who is also struggling to find her place in the world.

Baba and Nalan strike up a friendship, and she becomes his guide to modern Turkey. Baba is fascinated by the Western influence on Turkish culture and is eager to learn more. However, his past catches up with him when he is kidnapped by a gang of smugglers looking to take advantage of his unique upbringing in India. Baba must use his wits and his knowledge of mystic Hindu rituals to escape and save himself.

The movie also explores a romantic subplot between Baba, Nalan, and an old flame of Baba's named Zeynep (played by Zeynep Camci). Baba is torn between his feelings for both women and must make a tough decision about which path to follow.

Bir Baba Hindu is a unique and engaging movie that explores the clash of Eastern and Western cultures in modern Turkey. Sermiyan Midyat delivers a standout performance as Baba, portraying both his childlike innocence and his mature wisdom with ease. Nicole Faria and Zeynep Camci also shine in their respective roles, bringing depth and emotion to their characters.

The film features stunning visuals of India and Turkey, highlighting the cultural and geographical differences between the two countries. The soundtrack is also a standout element, featuring a blend of traditional Indian and Turkish music with modern pop beats.

Overall, Bir Baba Hindu is a must-see movie for anyone interested in exploring the intersection of cultures and the journey of self-discovery.
