Did alia deserve best popular actress for gully boy?

I know this has been discussed.

There's a lot of debate on twitter on who should have won, etc

Lot of people say b.c her role was supporting, only there for a short period..she shouldn't have won

Was she deserving? Who else should have won?

Just interested...b.c it is rare for an actress to win with just a 20 min role.

I liked her performance in Gully Boy F.y.i..and couldn't think of a strong competitor to win this year. her role was exceptionally well crafted and written in comparison to other F. roles. but still is this fair?
