TA is acting or being serious?

Feel free to vote your opinions. I still don't believe this director and his team till i see.

i think he is acting his way of talk shows that he is acting he know abt his mom how much she hates thulasi and he also heared his frds convo with his mom so he will support thulasi. if he say that he belive thulasi his family members wont allow him to goto court thats y he is acting
