Sonam’s sister Rhea also took to her social media handle to congratulate her for her win.

Congratulations on your award last night @sonamkapoor but more importantly congratulations on NEERJA one of the bravest and rarest gems I’ve seen come to life in this industry. A film near impossible to get made in this climate without people willing to put their money where their mouth is. Just a couple of crazy kids that love what they do and tell stories with passion and no other agenda. ?????? #respect
