The trailer for Zee5 drama Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam is out — and we're already anticipating some gory plotlines and powerful performances in the show.

Released on November 18, the trailer gives viewers an exciting glimpse into the upcoming desi noir anthology series and calls the upcoming drama a "chronicle of love, of betrayal, written in blood".

Seven women indulging in murderous revenge against deceitful lovers? Colour us intrigued.

We see actors Samiya Mumtaz, Sarwat Gilani, Mehar Bano Eman Suleman, Sanam Saeed, Faiza Gillani and Beo Raana Zafar deliver some very striking dialogues in the trailer. "There are no limits to the rage of a woman who has been discarded in the waste bin," says Mumtaz. "Discarding and rejecting somebody isn't a small thing."

Written by Farjad Nabi and Meenu Gaur, the show focuses on the fearlessness of women and their determination to avenge deceit, whilst being set in ‘Androon Sheher’ (downtown) — a mythical neighbourhood. Themes of love, ambition, revenge and revolution will also be explored. The drama is a compilation of six stories of seven women who wrestle back control and redefine the word femme fatale.

The drama also stars Osman Khalid Butt, Ahsan Khan, Sheheryar Munawar and Saleem Mairaj.

Zee5 has previously released dramas such as the much loved Churails and Dhoop Ki Dewar.

Qatil Haseenaon Ke Naam is set to be released on December 10 on Zee5.
