And dad (Anil Kapoor) has two National Awards in his thirty-year-long plus career and some incredible efforts has gone into making Neerja. It's incredible to be so young and win a National award. I am the only actor left in the family to win it."

The actor added, "It's an achievement and it stays with you for your life. I think it's truly deserved and we are proud of her. It's a great prestige for our family. For dad and Sonam, it's a happy day. I think we kind of knew that this is a good chance for her to win it. She carried the film on her shoulders and she made us believe that she is Neerja."
