Any path-breaking performances? Nope. 😛There are a lot of people that should be there before her and I saw someone mention Naseeruddin Shah, Sridevi and others, you know what they may not be as popular but their one performance has contributed more than Kat's entire filmography.As for being popular if you look at twitter and tumblr and other places I see PC, DP, Anushka even Sonam being popular, there is no way to measure it so being popular applies to all of them.Anyway good for Kat and her fans.
In terms of acting, PC should be there. But like you said, if it was just about that, the likes of Naser would be considered. Konkana, Shabana, Shobhana etc should have been there too if it was just about acting. But they included the likes of DP, Kat for a reason. Its just a business. They want to make money through gate revenue and having mainstream popular stars is the way to go.
