Burka Avenger is Pakistan's first female superhero

Back off Batman, and step aside Supergirl, because there's a new superhero in town taking Pakistan by storm - the Burka Avenger!

The Burka Avenger is an amazing action-comedy animated TV series that follows the adventures of the Burka Avenger and three young kids in the imaginary city of Halwapur as they fight the evil Baba Bandook and his henchmen.


The new hero is Pakistan's first ever female superhero.
Jiya is a schoolteacher who turns into the Burka Avenger to defend her young students from baddies who are trying to destroy their school.
The show has become a big hit in Pakistan, which has never had an animated series before.
The Burka Avenger's message is especially important for kids in Pakistan, where girls are not always given the right to an education.
Burka Avenger is the creation of Haroon Rashid, one of Pakistan's most famous and best selling pop music artists.
Haroon says: "Burka Avenger is a cartoon superhero, but for me, Malala is a real-life hero."

Get to know Jiya

Separated from her parents at a young age, Jiya was adopted by a wise old Kabbadi Master, Kabaddi Jan. He took her under his wing and taught her theart of Takht Kabaddi, a new kind of fighting style where books and pens are primarily used as weapons in conjunction with a variety of karate moves. To the locals, she is known simply as the demure school teacher but whenever evil is afoot, she takes on her alter identity, Burka Avenger and uses theTakht Kabaddi to defeat her enemies. As the Burka Avenger, she uses theBurka to hide her true identity, which no one knows except for herffather,Kabaddi Jan.
