Sonam won a National Award? When?

But demeaning another actor's win by using PR and fangroups to publicize a special mention as a best actress award and trying to make unaware people believe that it's for the best actress and snatching the spotlight from the real winner is alright. 😆

Talking about her win, she earlier told PTI, "My mother (Sunita) told me that I had received a special mention and I found it sweet and encouraging. I was like 'is it a consolation award?' She told me to speak to Anupam Kher uncle as he received it for Daddy. I spoke to Shabana (Azmi) aunty as well about it."

Sonam had said that she did not do the film for awards but is happy that the story on Neerja's life was recognised.

"I don't think I did 'Neerja' for rewards. The whole film signifies the idea of human compassion, kindness and strength especially in this day and age when there is so much competition around and it is about survival of the fittest. It is so important that a film like Neerja gets an honour like this. It is really great," she added.

You're so laughable, she didn't act as if she got the National Award, it's not her fault if the media didn't get into details. And didn't pay attention to the winner as it was surprising for them that Sonam that they deemed a bad actress was recognized by the NA and that they were also focusing on Akshay's win. Moreover, Bollywood tend to ignore NA when none of their actors win. I'm sure the Malayali's and the SI's press talked extensively about Surabhi's win.

She even posed with the actual winner.
