Recently, a Pakistani web drama called "Churails" was banned and then re-released due to the anger of the audience. This 10-episode series tells the story of four women from different backgrounds who came together because of the injustice of patriarchy and set up a secret detective agency "Churails" (witches). The four heroines are a former lawyer and an upper-class housewife, a snobbish event planner, a teenage boxer, and a murderer who has just been released from prison. They opened a fashion boutique as a cover for the secret detective agency. This detective work was originally intended to help women who suspected their husbands of infidelity find evidence, but as the plot developed, it touched on some issues that cannot be ignored, such as child marriage, harassment, abuse, forced marriage, racism, class inequality, homosexuality, etc. From threatening husbands who abuse their wives to rescuing Churails members trapped in forced marriages, the veil has become an important cover for them to hide their identities when performing their tasks. The drama has received a warm response in both Pakistan and India. Many people praised the show, saying it broke new ground, broke stereotypes and put strong women at the center of the story. A well-known local media described it as a "feminist masterpiece." However, the show also encountered opposition because it involved scenes such as women drinking, dressing in an unconservative manner, and using vulgar language. Pakistan's media regulator asked the on-demand platform to remove the series. The move triggered a strong reaction. Sanam Saeed, a popular Pakistani actress, said that banning candid movies and web dramas will not end rape. Famous actor Usman Khalid Butt also posted a series of tweets to express his anger and reminded the authorities to work hard to solve the rape cases that have made headlines in recent days. "Oh, you banned "Churails"? Congratulations. Now, focus your anger on the failure of the police to arrest the main suspect in the highway rape case. "There are also public figures who said that in this case, action movies should also be banned, "because Pakistan has also experienced a crisis of violence and killing!" (Source: BBC)
