Superb! Sonam Kapoor’s ‘Neerja’ bags 11 nominations at Star Screen Awards

The year 2016 started with a heart-rending story of Neerja Bhanot being portrayed on celluloid. Sonam Kapoor essayed the role of the Pan American Airlines purser, who lost her life while rescuing people from a hijacked plane. The story was powerful and so was the movie and now, it’s time to get due credit for the efforts. As the year nears the end, it’s time for the films to bag awards and Sonam’s ‘Neerja’ is definitely in the lead. And now, there is good news for the cast and crew, as the film has been nominated in 11 different categories for the upcoming Star Screen Awards.
