Chalawa is a supernatural story of a young girl named Sawera who is possessed by birth by a Chalawa (a type of supernatural demon) having the ability of betrayal and illusion. Her father Aamir had died before her birth but little did she know that Professor Hamdani was behind the betrayal who on the other hand seemed to be a savior to her mother Mahnoor, earlier in her childhood, after he "helped" get rid of the Chalawa named Sarnash from Sawera. Later on, she gets to know that she's not a normal human being but a Psychic Medium by birth who can see and feel paranormal entities, and after practice and embracing her abilities, she was also able to do astral projection, mind control and many other abilities. These powers were inherently transferred from her father. The drama also highlights the link between psychic abilities and the Ottoman Empire.
