== Plot ==
Maasilamani aka Maasi ([[Nakul (actor)|Nakul]]) is an orphan living in a lower-middle-class colony. With a heart of gold, he is a popular guy who takes up local issues, fights for them, and is considered rowdy by those who do not know him. Enters the heroine Divya ([[Sunaina]]), a rich upper-middle-class girl who is a dance instructor and with whom Maasi falls in love at first sight. However, Divya shows aversion to his rowdyism and gets offended by his proposal. Maasi attempts to win her family by being a good person and dons another name, Mani. All are aware that Mani and Maasi are one person except Divya. When Divya finds out the truth, she gets into a dilemma as to whom she has to choose. Bhoopathy ([[Pawan (actor)|Pawan]]), the local corrupt inspector who is also behind Divya, is determined to flop Maasi’s plans and prove that Mani is none other than Maasi. How Mani wins over Divya serves the climax of the movie.

==Reception==
''Behindwoods'' wrote "Masilamani gives you an instant hangover of having watched too many movies over a very short period of time. The script feels like a medley-mash of movies released over the past decade. And it wouldn’t be possible for us to name each of them since the list runs to pages."<ref>http://behindwoods.com/tamil-movie-reviews/reviews-2/masilamani.html</ref> ''Indiaglitz'' wrote "As said old wine in a new bottle, SUN Pictures' 'Masilamani' definitely adheres to this quote. The movie reflects a mix of several masala flicks with a dash of refinement."<ref>http://www.indiaglitz.com/masilamani-tamil-movie-review-10701.html</ref>

==Box office==
''Maasilamani'' was a commercial success at the box office grossing $2 million.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.behindwoods.com/tamil-movies-slide-shows/movie-4/top-ten-movies-july-27/tamil-cinema-topten-movie-masilamani.html |title=Masilamani — Tamil Top Ten Movies |work=Behindwoods.com |year=2015 |accessdate=31 January 2015}}</ref>
