Twitterati all praise for Sonam Kapoor!

The Star Screen Awards were held this weekend and Alia Bhatt bagged the award for Best Actress for ‘Udta Punjab’. Everyone expected Sonam Kapoor to bag this catagory for her performance in ‘Neerja’. It was obviously tough for everyone because Alia’s performance in ‘Udta Punjab’ was fabulous, but so was Sonam’s in ‘Neerja’. Sonam not only had her fans applauding her but also celebrities like Swara Bhaskar and Atul Kasbekar appreciated her work. Here’s how Twitter reacted!

“Not 2 take away frm Swara or Alia’s brilliant performances, but not havng Sonam on winners list does shock us!” 1/2https://t.co/cT3O5bqwkb

I don’t like how and why Koffee With Karan is being used as a pawn in someone’s game. Sonam Kapoor in Neerja was par excellence. That’s all. pic.twitter.com/79Chg1C4ct

I loved @aliaa08 in #UdtaPunjab but I also feel @sonamakapoor carried the whole movie #Neerja on her shoulders. She deserves Best actor.

Can’t believe @sonamakapoor didn’t win for Neerja at the #starscreenawards! She was phenomenal and deserved the recognition, period.

I am greatly moved by @sonamakapoor‘s humility and grace. She is the epitome of true class to me. Hope you get the national award for Neerja
