At a recent award, a special category was created for the actress, to make up for the Best Actress award she lost to Vidya

The recently held Star Screen Awards created a special category for Katrina Kaif. The actress was to perform for the awards but it wasn't live. It was for the telecast only. And it was to be recorded after the ceremony ended.
Says a source, "When Katrina came to the venue, she learnt that Kareena Kapoor was getting the Best Actress award (Popular) for 3 Idiots. Although she was nominated for Best Actress for her performance in New York (Critics' Choice), Vidya beat her to it for Paa. It is learnt that she was miffed at being left out because, after all, she had the most hits in 2009."

For Kat only
Finally, the organisers (the Morani brothers) and the publishing house behind the award decided to give her an award. Word is, that they decided to create a special category for her -- the best entertainer of the year -- and was presented the award before her act. When the award was announced, she came out of her van, accepted it and returned to her van. She didn't sit in with the rest of the starry guests that evening."

Mohommed Morani says, "I have no idea what happened. I was there to only coordinate Katrina's performance. Screen can best answer this question."
Katrina Kaif remained unavailable for comment.

Deserving

Sandeep Khosla of Screen says, "It's true we created an award for Katrina but this was decided by the Screen jury. We had a special award to Katrina her for the three hits -- New York, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, De Dana Dan -- that she had last year and the jury thought she deserved it. Katrina didn't insist or ask for any award. Nor did she throw any tantrums. She came and performed according to her commitment."

Oh yeah it makes sense now.....
Morani Brothers are family friends Thanks to Salman
Salman danced at the show...Thanks once again.

There is nothing if you don't have contacts.....

If Salman is the reason she got that award then why is it that he himself didn't get one? He was nominated in the popular category. He is not the type to buy awards like some others do nor does he care about them. He has said, he goes to the award shows to dance because they pay him. He uses that money for Being Human. So I don't buy it that Katrina got it because of him.

I don't think she got it to make up for other awards she was nominated for. In all honesty, she showed a lot improvement in New York but I don't think it was an award worthy performance. Not that they're given out based on performances.

I do agree that Indian award shows are a big joke. You just do not go around 'creating' awards. Its utterly ridiculous! They'd freakin' mail the awards to everyone they love.

They created it for her because she did have hits. It has nothing to do with Salman. She is the top actress with the highest number of hits this year. So of course the industry was going to award her. This is Bollywood, meri jaan. 😉

Here we go again😆 Can someone please remind me the last katrina movie which flopped? I can't remember any. Even her latest movie with Akki was Average not a flop. If there could be Heartbeat of the Nation Award😆 then why not Entertainment of the year?😉

LOL,Salman isn't friends with Moranis.They just organise shows.Salman performed and got paid.He never sits in the audience nor does he ever walk the red carpet.He just performs n leaves.
I agree with Salmanfan,if Salman is behind this he could have got himself an award right?😛
This is in no way related to Salman yet he's being dragged into this topic.😕

Hey,when Ranbir won the entertainer of the year award ..no one complained.
Heartbeat awards were sponsored by Chevorlet..like lux 'fresh face' award...
Katrina definitely deserved an award for her contribution to bollywood cinema in 2009.She entertained millions and earned a great deal for the industry.👍🏼.She was good in all her 3 films.

Poor girl got an award and media is not letting her enjoy it....
Now media is going about how she snatched the awards rather than getting it for her capability...Comeon she got it so let her enjoy it...
I refuse to believe that Salman did not have any hand in it....but there are others who do the same...nothing wrong,,
PS: Is there a wards for MAximum hits then WHY Akki was not given that. He has given more than 11 hits in three years...
