The story is about four women who have claimed themselves to be churail and thus the name “main churail hoon”. The women wear hijabs to revenge the male species who have endured cruelty and abuse on the women.

The four women come from different walks of life but have only the motive to hand out retribution to the male of the species. One of the lady is a wealthy lawyer, the other is unemployed wedding planner, another is a boxer but from a poor family, and lastly is a prisoner who had spend decades in jail for murdering her own husband. In the wake of a retail boutique they create an army of women to teach lesson to abusive men. Coming from Pakistan the story about women empowerment surely need to be celebrated.
The characters are interesting and help you feel the pain while going through the abuse and a sense of pride and satisfaction when the justice is delivered. The show has amazing ladies with characters that will surely inspire you.
The stories of oppression, deviance, filtering, and much more is told by Abbasi in the most interesting and exciting way. Sara the lawyer is epitome of style and to be the trophy wife practices law and often says “main hoon na” in the most sarcastic and hilarious way. Played by Sarwat Gilani Mirza who is the conflicted leader of the group. She asks her kids not to eat chocolates but herself has the treat. Jughnu is the wedding planner and has the amazing slang language and has a very detached air to herself. Then comes Batool who is called Badi Amma is a strong lady with very traumatic past and has high temperature all the time.
Zubeida played by Meher Bano is a boxer who is tough yet sweet and cannot fight the authority for her rights.
The four ladies are different but then are on the same mission and start training women to support the cause. The retail boutique that they start is called Halal Designs but there is nothing lawful here. However, the ladies take law in their hands to fight injustice ands get justice for the oppressed ladies.

I have heard about this show alot many times but somehow my previous weekend got occupied. Thanks for the detailed review again, definitely gonna give this weekend to this series.
I been hearing a lot about this show. I would love to watch is soon. I like such plots
Churails promises entertainment that is different from the run of the mill. With female protagonists and a female-centric plot, it seems to be a strong ode to womanhood.
We sure have a perception about our neighbouring countries. And most of those are not favourable. But this show will hopefully change our perceptions and the right to freedom for women. Will surely watch it. Besides it sounds realy cool–women detectives in burqa!
Churails seems to be a really interesting series. More so as the plot looks different and is centred around women protagonists.
I have been reading blogs on blogosphere today and so many wonderful series on zee5. Just cannot understand which one to start first. Thanks for this.
I love women centric shows… Churail seems like an amazing show! I will definitely watch it!
Indeed director has treated different plots very beautifully and make it more meaningful. I’ve watched Churails. With powerful performance and strong storyline its Indeed a binge watch.
Churail is a very nice and challenging show . I have already watched all the episodes. This is a great women centric show .
Heard a lot of good reviews about this show. I love such strong feminist stories. This is definitely my watch.
Sounds like an interesting watch. Thank you for this detailed review.
I actually did have my eye on this when the first trailer came. Somehow it skipped my mind after that. Will look for it now.
