Remembering Leonardo as being "kind and affectionate", Anupam Kher captioned the photo, "I met @leonardodicaprio at an event in Los Angeles few years back. I introduced myself.

The best thing about being an actor is that you meet wonderful people from all over the world and bond with them easily. Actors are a tribe in themselves".
