The title "Lipstick Under My Burkha" is a symbolic representation of the film's themes. The burkha, a traditional garment worn by some Muslim women, often represents modesty and restraint. However, the addition of "lipstick" signifies a sense of freedom, individuality, and self-expression. The title suggests that even in a society where women are expected to conform, they can still find ways to express themselves and assert their individuality.
