Trivia
The film Appooppan was announced as Charitram Aavarthikkunnilla and the film's posters and LP records covers also carried the same name. The title change to Appooppan happened just within 1 week before the theatrical release of the film. There is a misconception that Appooppan and Charitram Aavarthikkunnilla are two different films.
