I smelled its success immediately after listening to the script. And my guess was right. Besides, the song 'Nakka mukka' took me closer to the masses. I cannot forget this film,' he said.

'I believe strongly that patience and perseverance pay off. 'Maasilamani' was another right step after 'Kadhalil Vizhunthen',' Nakul added.

In both films - 'Kadhalil Vizhunthen' and 'Maasilamani' - Nakul was paired with Sunaina. He says contrary to the rumours that he is dating her, the makers of 'Maasilamani' roped them again because they liked their onscreen chemistry.

'They (romance reports) are baseless. Sunaina and I are friends and our screen chemistry is great. This could perhaps be the reason behind the director and producer roping us in for 'Maasilamani'. Since our chemistry is great on screen, it may look like love, but it's only acting.'
