  I'm not sure of this has been posted here before.
  It's a review of the Telegu version of Baba, "Baaba":
  
  "Comingto the audio of the movie, Rahman score for Rajini's earlier film Padayappa was unimpressive and he had to face the wrath of his fans. Will he face the same this time? Well, that is solely dependent on what Rajini's fans are expecting from it, but for this reviewer, this album sounds to be a good mix of mass and class tunes leaning more on towards the class audience. As with other ARR albums, these songs also take time to grow on you. Nevertheless, there are couple of songs that impress you in the first hearing itself. The lyric is highly inspirational and more importantly, it gives little or no importance to love, an word without which most of the tollywood lyricists may cease to exist. After listening to repetitive love songs, teasing songs and folk songs churned out by a few young tollywood music directors, Baba songs are like a whiff of fresh air.
  ....
  Baba album is packed with Rajni's ideology. The whole album has more of a class feel to it and one has to see how Rajini's fans receive it. More importantly it doesn't have the typical self introduction (read it as self boasting) mass number quintessential in all Rajinikanth movies, which is a welcome relief. AR Rahman made a laudable attempt to transform Rajni’s usual loud and jingoistic style into a philosophical and insightful note. This album may not go well with the masses, but those who have good ear to music will love some of the songs."

  this site telugucinema.com is a junk site, known for polarising to some caste based heros. We take that as reference.
  
  I saw BABA DVD (in telugu) yesterday. The songs are ok. very average, and there is nothing like 'growing' on you. People listned to Qurbani many times and started liking it. There is nothing earth shaking in the songs.
  
  The BGM is good - particularly the funky one which comes during second half. That is the only contribution of ARR in this film. period.

  Well said, CP.:)
  
  From Sify Movies:
  
  "The mystery surrounding the missing birthday boy, the elusive Rajnikanth has been solved. Our ‘thalaivar’ has started writing his autobiography titled – “Njan Enge Pogiren?”(Where am I going?)
  
  Rajni is now staying at Telugu actor Mohan Babu’s farmhouse near Tirupati and writing his autobiography. The biography will cover his life and times and describe his rags to riches story.
  
  It will also chronicle his rise from his debut film Apoorva Raagangal to his 150th film Baba. For the time being Rajni would be spending the next couple of months to finish the biography. Rajni feels that this will keep him occupied till he finds a suitable story for his next film."
