The term "Babe" is often used to refer to the female leads in Bollywood films, who are frequently depicted as objects of desire, rather than as multidimensional characters with agency. These women are often reduced to their physical appearance, with their bodies and beauty being used as a marketing tool to attract audiences. The "Babe" is expected to conform to certain standards of femininity, dressing in revealing clothing, and performing seductive dance numbers that cater to the male gaze. This objectification of women is a pervasive issue in Bollywood cinema, where female characters are often relegated to secondary roles, and their stories are centered around their relationships with men.
