The film's story is about a carefree young atheist, Baba, who is a reincarnation
of a failed saint from the Himalayas. After several twists and problems caused by corrupt local politicians, Baba is taken to Mahavatar Babaji
, whom Baba was a follower of in his last life. Baba gets tested by the deity and is given seven chances of wishes; the test is that if he uses any one of the wishes for his own personal desires, he would have to take many more births for him to get rid of the karma
.
) and his maternal uncle (M. N. Nambiar
) are ardent devotees of Mahavatar Babaji
(the Baba who is supposed to be of 2000 years old and who live in Himalayas). Chamundeswari (Manisha Koirala
) stays in the neighborhood of Baba and they fall in love.
Baba involves in a physical feud with the son of a state minister Ippo Ramaswamy (Ashish Vidyarthi
). Ramaswamy demolishes the colony of Baba. When Baba is about to go to fight with Ramaswamy, Baba's mother urges him to maintain calm and rebuild lost colony it by working hard. Baba joins as a labor in a shop and earns money. Chamundeswari tells Baba that she is not willing to marry a daily labor. Then Baba realizes that so far he has been only answerable for his mother. And if he gets married then he has to live for wife and kids. And he would become answerable to them. He would not be able to help for the society as he might become selfish after marriage. He feels that prema (love) is maya (illusion). At that time, a weird looking sadhu comes to him and tell him that its time for getting enlightened. Baba is taken to Himalayas where he meets the real Baba. He gets frightened by the atmosphere and wishes to return back to Chennai. Then real Baba grants 7 wishes to Baba. He can use any of these wishes anytime he wishes to utilize. Baba is sent back to Chennai. Baba still could not believe that he went to Himalayas met real Baba. He uses that mantra to test the power by wishing a flying kite to come and fall in his hand. He waits for a few seconds and decide that it was all his illusion. Later the kite follows him to his house and falls on his hand. He feels that its coincidental and tries the mantra again to a different kite and wishes it to fall on his lap. He goes into his house and closes all the possible entries in the house. But the kite makes its way and falls on his lap. That is where he realizes that Baba is real and God exists in the world. He still has five more wishes left. And the minister Ramaswamy comes to know about it. They call a tantrik (Amrish Puri
) to foil Baba's magic powers.
Baba spends 3 more wishes for trivial things. The sixth wish is used to revive a patient fighting for his life. Ramaswamy's boss Purushottaman wants to become the permanent chief minister of the state using Baba's boons. He also tries to kill Baba but this attempt fails due to the blessings of Babaji. The final wish is then used to install an unselfish chief minister for the state. Once his wishes are used up, Baba has the choice of living with Babaji at the Himalayas or returning to his life in the material world. But when Baba is just about to ascend to the Himalayas, the villains kill the loyal chief minister. Baba turns back and the film ends with the tag "To be continued...." .
, the exhibitors and distributors of Baba, who have declared the losses of the film 6 years ago, have surprisingly claimed the film as a super-hit.
. The songs were recorded in 2002 June. Rahman had to record them online as he was in London
with the works of Bombay Dreams
. The soundtrack album was released on July 2002 in Chennai. According to Rahman, he has tried innovations with Baba, giving more than the jingoistic music that is a characteristic part of a Rajni movie. The songs, especially the tracks "Maya Maya" and "Sakthi Kodu", turned out to be big hits and were considered one of the highlights in Baba. Some of the songs were filmed from Europe.
A controversy regarding the soundtrack originated when lyricist Vairamuthu
expressed dissatisfaction over the online recording. Rahman defended this saying, "Busy as I was with Bombay Dreams, it was simply impossible for me to be in Chennai. Sometimes it is inevitable, in a situation like this, where the reputation and money of somebody else is at stake." Rahman also faced criticisms from the film fraternity for not recording the songs in time. Another controversy was that Dravida Kazhagam objected to the lyrics of a song that had to be partially deleted from the film later. They have taken objection to what they have called unfair commentary on Periyar E. V. Ramasamy
and Ramaswami's ideology.
Rahman introduced Reena Bhardwaj
through the song "Kichchu Tha". This song was reused with different instrumentation and vocals in Swades
(2004).
