If Hollywood's ace actor Leonardo DiCaprio had his way, he would love to team up with Indian megastar Amitabh Bachchan on screen again after having shared screen space with him in "The Great Gatsby". He finds the veteran an impressive talent and a "gentleman".

Recently, while DiCaprio was being interviewed for his latest film "The Wolf Of Wall Street", he was questioned whether if an opportunity to work with Mr. Bachchan would come up again, what would he do. He expressed an interest in it, read a statement.

The "Titanic" star said: "Mr. Bachchan impressed me immensely by not just his talent and his ability to act, but what a gentleman he was. I was honoured to work with him. It was great seeing that enthusiasm he brings to even the smallest of roles and I'd love to work with him in the future."

Amitabh, 71, made his international debut with "The Great Gatsby", directed by Baz Luhrmann. Big B plays the role of Meyer Wolfsheim in the $125 million 3D project, an adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel of the same name.
