<script type="text/javascript">
            $(function(){
                    $('#rangeBa, #rangeBb').daterangepicker();
             });
             $(document).ready(function(){
                var date = '17-05-2013';
                $('#rangeBa, #rangeBb').daterangepicker('setDate', date);?
            })
        </script>

This works like a charm. You can try it.

var today = new Date();
var endDate = new Date();
endDate.setMonth(endDate.getMonth() + 1);
$('#rangeBa, #rangeBb').daterangepicker({ 
    startDate: today, // after open picker you'll see this dates as picked
    endDate: endDate,
    locale: {
       format: 'DD-MM-YYYY',
    }
}, function (start, end, label) {
    //what to do after change
}).val(today + " - " + endDate); //set it to see it inside input (don't forget to format dates)

If you want to limit date range just use minDate and maxDate options.
