Thanks once again for the excellent update, Vsur.
OK, here's my hunch. The person in the silver car, to whom ACD said "I believe you will do as you said" at their secret meeting on Monday, was Priya. She had just come back from Kuala Lumpur with Charu's signature and was heading back there after leaving a copy of the signed papers in the office (the one that Sivaraman spots later). This is why ACD's tone of voice was different from that he normally uses when addressing Charu.
Charu must have asked for ACD's help as she and Priya are now up against a criminal element in her own circles. Perhaps this little official interaction between ACD and Priya will gradually lead to something more?
If Cheyar doesn't have any ideas, he's free to borrow mine. Better still, he can hire me as his new creative head. I won't insist on a five-figure salary in Singapore dollars -- it would be more fun writing stories than doing the kind of dry, analysis work I do.
But then, on the other hand, given the kind of finicky viewers Cheyar has had to contend with on the Anandham thread, I'd have a hard time as creative head. You see, when Cheyar started focusing on the ACD-Priya story (much to the delight of people like myself), there were one or two persons who complained that he had forgotten the main characters and main plot. When he was generous in showing ACD in a casual context (again, much to the delight of most viewers), one or two others sarcastically commented that ACD should be back in his office solving all the cases that were piling up instead of dressing up in green, orange and other colours and playing various games with JC. (Yes, one of you actually singled out the colours and the games). Most of these remarks may have been teases. Or they may not have been. Cheyar had to take them literally. Which is why he may have returned to the current focus on the RK-Abhi-Shanti family and hasn't even been showing us much of ACD in uniform, let alone in casuals.
The long and short of all this, dear fellow Anandham thread readers, is that what you say may be taken at face value by the production team. You may get what you wish for. Or didn't really wish for 😃
