Leonardo DiCaprio for The Revenant : 
A man with 44 awards but not a single golden lady, that depicts the story of Caprio. He was nominated several times in Oscars for best actor in a leading role but luck didn’t favor him well.
This time he is in for his movie The Revenant (soon to be released in India) where he plays an  explorer Hugh Glass who is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. Keeping in mind what he had to go through during the shoot, he deserves every bit of the golden lady. Leonardo had to shoot in minus forty degree temperature, ate raw liver though he Is a vegetarian, put up 47 prosthetic pieces to look like his character and the most important part is yet to come- had to convey his message and emotions without using any dialogues since he was alone in the wilderness.
