Though drama serial was being awarded on jury decision and Hum membership, the official acknowledgment was developed in second year ceremony.

Of the 22 drama serials that have been nominated for Best Drama Serial, 21 have also nominated for Best Director Drama Serial. Only Zindagi Gulzar Hai won both Best Director and Best Drama award, at 2nd Hum Awards in 2014. Only Shehr-e-Zaat and Bunty I Love You won the Best Drama Serials awards for their producers without winning Directing awards. Presently only four drama serials have nominated for Best Director without their producers being nominated: Sanjha , Durr-e-Shahwar , Mata-e-Jaan Hai Tu and Bilqees Kaur , while Sanjha is the only serial who won Best Director award without being nominated as Best Drama Serial.
