Even though the 2013 film wasn’t huge at the box office, fans loved watching Big B sharing screen with Leonardo. Talking about the film, the Inception actor once described his experience of working with the legend.
Back in 2013, during an interview to NDTV, Leonardo DiCaprio had praised Amitabh Bachchan’s acting skills and personality. He said, “He couldn’t be a more gentle, wonderful individual to work with. And astoundingly talented. To come and play Meyer Wolfsheim in this movie and embody that roughness and a mystery, everything that comes out of his mouth is filled with so much more and so much presence. And then you see the camera cut and he’s the perfect gentleman, just a joy to be around and a wonderful collaborator. He’s a magnificent actor and I was honoured to work with him.”

I can’t say enough wonderful things about my experience working with him,” Leonardo DiCaprio added.
Amitabh Bachchan too had shared a picture in 2017 from Cannes premiere. “The Great Gatsby premiere at Cannes and with the star Leonardo DiCaprio at the red carpet and then on stage.
