Often we don't know Sanskrit word and hence replace it with Urdu. I better option would be to replace with English.
Because English word will most probably be derived from Sanskrit. But Urdu may be demeaning instead of meaning, due to its roots in invasion & brutality.

Aurat is among most vulgar abuses known to humanity. Means naked, dirty, disgusting, refers to private parts.
English word Woman comes from Vaamaa of Sanskrit.

Shaheed would suit suicide bombers like Adil Dhar more than heroes like Bhagat Singh. Shaheed dies killing Kafirs.

Martyr comes from Mrita of Sanskrit meaning who chose death for cause.

Best would be Veer or Hutatma or Amar. 3/n

Bachha refers to practice of using children as sex toys or camel races etc.
English Kid comes from Kreeda of Sanskrit. Means one who plays.

Baby comes probably from Baala.

Better use Shishu or Baala or Baalaka/Baalika or Vatsa or Suta or Putra/Putri. 4/n

Similarly avoid using Maalik. When you call someone Maalik, you admit you are Maala or item to be exploited /enjoyed and have no free will.

Best is to use Swami which refers to someone who has obligation to care of your best interests just like himself.

Bazaar is a place where slaves and children are sold. If in doubt, think of word Bazaaru.
Market comes from Sanskrit Mrakshat that means to aggregate things together. Or use Vipani where money exchange happens, or Haat which has same meaning as Mrakshat. 6/n
