NCP's unconditional support to BJP has compelled Sena to give up its strident note, said Sena watchers.
However, it was not clear if Sena leaders will submit a formal proposal from Thackeray to Singh and Nadda, outlining the party's demand in return for support.
BJP leader OP Mathur on Tuesday said his party and its allies, who have 123 seats, had garnered 15 seats more. "We now have 137, even 138 seats," he told mediapersons.
BJP wants Shiv Sena to support the government from inside without any conditionalities.
Sena turned restive as it became clear that Singh and Nadda had put off their Mumbai visit again on Tuesday.
That Sena has gone on the backfoot is an indication that BJP played its cards well after the poll results were out on Sunday, political analysts said. "We had decided that under no circumstances will we go to Sena on bended knees to seek support. We want Sena to be with us in the new regime. However, Matoshree should stop acting pricey and adapt itself to the changing political climate in the state," said a key state BJP leader.
Meanwhile, nearly 35 of the 44 BJP MLAs from Vidarbha on Tuesday came out openly with their demand that Union minister Nitin Gadkari should be anointed as the state's chief minister.
The MLAs gathered at Gadkari's Nagpur residence in a veritable show of strength. Earlier, Gadkari was given a rousing reception by his supporters at the Nagpur airport. The Union minister arrived from New Delhi by a morning flight.

Talking to mediapersons, Gadkari reiterated that he didn't see himself in the race for the top post. "I have stated several times that I am not keen on coming to Maharashtra as CM", he said.
Some in the state BJP think that Gadkari, with his blunt, no-nonsense style, would be a better choice as CM than the soft-spoken Devendra Fadnavis if the Sena is set to join the government. Gadkari has in the past given several rebuffs to Matoshree, and vice versa. However, the central BJP leadership is all set to anoint Fadnavis on Monday.
BJP leader from Vidarbha Sudhir Mungantiwar has made it clear that he favours Gadkari as CM. "The final decision will, of course, be taken by the party's parliamentary board. However, Gadkari's decision to stay put in New Delhi is improper. He should come to Maharashtra as chief minister," said Mungantiwar, a Gadkari loyalist.
