At the Star Screen Awards, Kareena Kapoor won the Best Actress (Popular) award for her spunky turn in 3 Idiots and Vidya Balan won the Best Actress (Critics’ Choice) award for her splendid performance in Paa leaving Katrina Kaif miffed.

A source tells us, ‘Katrina Kaif had New York, Blue, Ajab Prem ki Ghazab Kahani and De Dana Dan as her releases in 2009, out of which Ajab and New York were big hits. She was nominated for her natural performance in New York but Vidya Balan beat her to it in the Critics’ category. Katz felt it unfair that her achievement, that of maximum hits in one year, was going unrecognized. She was scheduled to perform for the televised version of the event but she was upset and felt left out.’
