Actor-director-producer Samuthirakani is a happy man as his recently-released film Appa is doing well at the box office as well as struck a chord with parents and headmasters. Now, the director is in talks with producers to either remake or dub the film in Kannada and Hindi. At present, he is planning to remake Appa in Malayalam with Mohanlal reprising his role. However, talks are still in the initial stages and things are yet to be confirmed.
