Baba

I am not a big fan of Rajnikant in the first place, but Baba was a huge disappointment. In between an awful storyline, the action and songs were only mediocre. The storyline becomes very preachy. Instead of running for office like NTR or MGR, Rajni almost appeared to be running as Tamil Nadu's next big guru. My wife tells me that since this film came out, Rajni swore off doing any more movies!

We were lucky initially to have bought Babu (an oldie by Sivajiganeshan) online by accident when trying to buy this one....that was a great film, which made up for having bought this dud...except it makes Baba look even worse by comparison!

A most awaited film of the year 2002. After three and half years of hibernation,Rajini has acted in this movie. The hype for this film was toooooo high..

This is not a typical Rajini film, in this film he gives some spiritual messages also. But it also includes typical Rajini actions,style,songs etc. Its a good entertaining movie and gives good messages also.

I will rate this movie as Good instead of Excellent because of the screenplay. Its a must watch movie. Dont miss it!

People here have passed blistering remarks about the movie n have criticized it bigtime cuz they are probably normal movie goers. This movie is not for the general audience. This movie emerged from Rajini's (fondly Thalaivar) meditation. It is relatable to his life n has a strong spiritual message. This movie is only for the people who love Rajini as a human or are ardent spiritualists. Only such people can relate with the movie. The rest should stay away from the movie. Me being a Thalaivar fan n admirer, this movie gave me an inexplicable magical feeling n took me closer to Rajini sir (emotionally) at the age of 9 (I was 9 when this movie released). This movie is very close to my heart as much as Rajini sir (Thalaivar) is. 💕🤘

The movie is awful, atrocious, ridiculous, silly and a slap on the cine goers face. Rajni has made other entertaining movies, but has failed miserably in this venture. Avoid seeing this movie at any cost. Please don't even try watching this movie to assess how bad it is. You will be wasting your time as much as I did.

Good movie with great dialog. This movie explains about Spiritually.
