Los Angeles, Feb 29 (IBNS) After being nominated six times, Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio won his first Oscar on Sunday (Monday) for American revenge drama The Revenant.

Leonardo DiCaprio essayed the role of a betrayed 19th-century frontiersman in the film.

The Revenant is a 2015 American survival drama film directed, co-produced, and co-written by Alejandro G. Iñárritu.

The film is based in part on Michael Punke's novel with the same title, which is inspired by the experiences of frontiersman and fur trapper Hugh Glass in 1823, in what is now Montana and South Dakota.
