Virtually ruling the silent village of Ithirikkandam, the idiotic father and son have wealthy business deals including school, market, financiers and so on, from their very modest beginnings. The duo is said to have worked hardly during their rough times to built the empire they are presently on.

Pappy is in love with his childhood schoolmate Annie, who is currently working as a teacher in a school managed by Nirappel family. Though Pappy doesn't have the courage to reveal his feeling towards her, he takes pain to have her as his first look everyday, though Annie dislikes the pompous ways of the father-son duo who place money in front of every deal. The movie goes on to tell how the duo separates from each other following the works of certain crooks, including Sashankan Muthallai (Ashokan) and Maanikunju (Suresh Krissna). A panchayath election and some unthinkable happenings as its aftermath and a surprise villain are in store for the climax.

Bottom Line

===========

Pappy Appacha - Is a passable fare

With a predictable story about a father and son living like buddies that had been done to perfection in many Mollywood movies before, 'Pappy Appacha' from the debutant director Mammas is solely based on the intentions to tickle your funny bone, now and then. The movie displays some big promises with genuinely funny title cards and 2D illustrations for flashbacks but a beaten to death plot lines destroy much of the charisma of the flick, ending up as a passable fare.
