Sonam was very good in neerja surprisingly. This is the first time i ever liked her. Before watching neerja i was thinking she is hyped but after watching it she deserves all this praises. She improved a lot.

I haven't watched piku yet so will not vote as it will be unfair.

Piku was not only a Deepika movie, it was an Amitabh movie, it was an Irffan movie too.

Neerja was an out and out Sonam movie.

Don't compare apple with oranges. Let deepika do a movie without any strong cast and carry the movie on her shoulders to success, then we compare.

To be frank piku was all about potty jokes , the best thing about piku was the fater daughter duo relationship and Neerja on other side had to spread the message / Accomplishments of Forgotten county's daughter Neerja . Sonam had a plus point that she resembles very much to the real neerja. The overall movie was awesome. I really liked the way they promoted this movie without any negative publicity.

So ll go with #Neerja

Loved both but Deepika in Piku a tad bit more. I am in the minority here who doesn't think that the presence of AB and Irrfan can belittle a fantastic performance by Deepika in the film.The common link between both the films I think is the subtlety of the characters and how both the actors have performed accordingly to what the characters demanded. And i found Deepika better for the small nuances she does here and there throughout the film. Like those small looks she gives at the breakfast table, etc.. And also the mileu was very much present in Deepika's portrayal of Piku..Like I could only see the bong Piku in her and not the South Indian Deepika. This is something I found missing in Sonam's portrayal of Neerja... Like at many places she appeared to be herself and not the character (maybe due to her accent or something).. I mean i was missing some small nuances at places in Neerja which i think could have added a lot more to her portrayal of Neerja, though she did give a really good performance.

So yeah, as an independent performance, Sonam was great in Neerja but if compared to Piku, I think Deepika did a better job.

And just like how people find it hard to appreciate Deepika and her contirbution to the film just because it also stars Amitabh and Irrfan, should we also stop appreciating Sonam's contirbution to the film just because it's based on a braveheart and already has that emotional dramatic connect with the audience?

We already know that Amitabh and Irrfan are amazing actors and Neerja is already an emotionally touching story which will click with the audiences if you cast any good actress but inspite of all this, both Deepika and Sonam have given something of their own, their own contirbution which makes the films even better.
