Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap says that actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui holds a special place in his heart and that they share a "silent" relationship.

Kashyap, who has worked with Nawazuddin in films like "Black Friday" and "Gangs of Wasseypur", opened up about his bond with the actor on UTV Stars' show `Yeh Hai Meri Kahaani`.

`Nawazuddin is a very good man. I love him a lot. With him, I share a silent relationship. We can even sit in a plane without talking for three hours straight,` said Kashyap, who sometimes finds it hard to express himself.

`I have trouble expressing myself where it is essential to,` he added on the show.

The episode featuring Kashyap will be on air Sunday.
