This research is mainly based on women empowerment and acknowledgement of their rights and the issues that women face do not exist only in our society but all across the world.  This research study aims to highlight the struggle of women of every age in our society. To accomplish this goal, the researcher has collected the data from a renowned Drama Serial “Sar e Rah” to analyze the issues that are highlighted in the drama. Every woman character in this drama portrays how women face hurdles in their daily life.
