This scene from Khabi Kushi Khabhi Gham solidifies my hypothesis as females are looked upon to be the housewife. Essentially, by conforming to the housewife roles and routines, she has to take part in the relgious activities around the house to maintain the wellbeing of her family. By Kareena Kapoor singing a religious hymn, she is making the whole house happy and is contributing to the livelyhood of the family by washing away any arguments. Instantly, this tells us that the steroetype of females acting as passive audeinces but maintaining peace within the family is strongly advocated here.

This song is a small prelude to the narrative of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. In this movie, the male protagonist falls for the more girly, flirtacious girl who wears revealing clothes, in comparison to his best friend who is more of a tomboy, but has fancied the protagonist for a logn period of time. This is conforming to sociologist theorist Scheibe, who stated that females are most predominatly concerned with beauty, as the flirtacious girl is clearly a tart.
