Bond between women 

Apart from focusing on the murder cases, these shows also pay major attention to the bond between these women. In Churails, Zubaida, Jugnu and Batool support Sara when her husband cheats on her and decide to open an investigative agency to serve justice. They help her through her bad phase and similarly help other women whose husbands have been cheating on them. In Black Widows, the three women are wives of three colleagues who work together. They support each other by solving each other’s problems. After murdering their husbands, Kavita, Veera and Jayati continue to fight the case and stay strong together.

Shattering the stereotypes of society 

Both shows are extremely progressive when it comes to women’s rights. Churails is the first show in Pakistan which was so progressive and focused on some of the major social issues. In Black widows, the wives are initially shown as victims. However, they later break the shackles of society to prove that women should get what they want. The show majorly focuses on how women should not be a part of domestic violence and should raise their voice against it.
