Gold Award for Best Actress in a Lead Role is an award given as part of its annual Gold Awards for TV serials.
The award was first awarded in 2007 under the title Best Actress in a Lead Role. A special award called Best Actor – Critics or Best Actor – Jury is also awarded occasionally since 2008, whose winner was selected by the jury of critics assigned to the function.
The jury award was awarded without prior nominations until 2010. Since then, the jury award is also awarded with prior nominations just like the original award which is now called Best Actress – Popular.
