Titanic star Leonardo Di Caprio's step mother is an Amritdhari Sikh
Famous Hollywood Actor Leonardo Di Caprio's step mother is an Amritdhari Sikh. Taking pride in Sikhism and peace at the same time, she dons the 5Ks blessed by the 10th Guru Sahib - Sri Huru Gobind Singh Ji.
His father's second wife - Peggy Farrar is an Amritdhari Sikh. Leo's father George is a comic book writer and editor and also the distributor of underground comics. His wife, Peggy Farrar, is often spotted with George Di Caprio at film festivals across the world.
Amritdhari Sikh is the one who has received baptismal vows of the Khalsa initiated by Guru Gobind Singh. He/she abides by these vows and follows the 'Panj Karari Rahit' (rules of wearing the 5ks), the distinctive insignia introduced by the Guru comprising five symbols, each beginning with the letter K.
These are Kesh (long unshorn hair and in case of men, beard too), Kangha (a comb to keep this hair tidy), Kirpan (a sword), a Kada (a wrist band) and a Kaccha (an undergarment).
Dicaprio’s mother embraced the Sikh faith quite a number of years ago but has donned the turban for about a decade ago.
The mother is often seen at Hollywood award shows as she’s easily identifiable due to her turban.
