Actor Jiiva feels all Leonardo DiCaprio films are masterpieces

Actor Jiiva is busy shooting for his film in Palani in Tamil Nadu, but he still made time to watch the Oscars. He was also rooting for Leonardo DiCaprio to win Best Actor and took to his social media page to state, "Hard work never fails."

Speaking exclusively to dna, Jiiva says, "All of Leonardo's films are masterpieces. He started off with Titanic and he made sure that he worked hard and reached where he is today. He has a baby face, but look how he transforms himself into all these diverse characters he plays on screen."

Tell Jiiva that Leonardo was nominated five times but only won the sixth time, he replies, "But look at this way - maybe if he had won, he wouldn't have given it all for every film after that and delivered such great films."

As for any similarities that he feels he has with Leo other than acting and a passion for movies, Jiiva laughs and says, "My beard and moustache do not grow properly and neither does his!"
