Detailed Bias Analysis

Center
Primary
Badhaai Ho receives a neutral rating because it balances a critique of rigid societal norms and ageism with a strong emphasis on family unity and acceptance. The film champions empathy and individual happiness within existing social structures rather than advocating for a specific political ideology or systemic change.
The movie features an all-Indian cast, reflecting its cultural context without engaging in explicit DEI-driven casting as defined by Western-centric criteria. Its narrative subtly critiques societal norms and judgmental attitudes towards an older couple's unexpected pregnancy, advocating for their choices without negatively portraying traditional identities.
Secondary
The film portrays a Hindu family and their cultural practices with authenticity and respect. While it challenges societal norms and taboos that may be associated with traditional interpretations, it does so to promote acceptance and love, rather than critiquing the religion itself. The narrative ultimately aligns with the dignity of the family's faith as an integral part of their identity.
Badhaai Ho does not feature any identifiable LGBTQ+ characters or themes. The film's narrative centers on a heterosexual couple's unexpected pregnancy and the societal reactions, thus having no direct portrayal of queer identity.
The movie does not contain any action or adventure elements.
Badhaai Ho is an original film featuring characters created specifically for this production. There are no pre-existing source materials, historical figures, or legacy characters whose gender could have been altered.
Badhaai Ho is an original Hindi-language film from 2018. It is not an adaptation of pre-existing material, a biopic, or a reboot with legacy characters. Therefore, no characters had a previously established race that could have been altered.
