Answers
Answer:
Noooooooooooooo....
Answer:
The character is portrayed as a lethargic, prodigal, lazy bone conman who is filled with confidence. Appamam was an ascetic or sanyasi. He was an easy going man, quiet lazy, funny and intriguing. Besides this he was unreliable. He lived with a comfort doing nothing useful himself or to others. As a result, it was assumed that he was a charlatan. He was fond of stealing things from the house and giving them to others. Newspapers and chairs were the only source of interest for him. Although he claimed to be a sanyasi there was nothing spiritual about him. As elders called him Appa and he was an uncle, the younger of the family started calling him Appamam. Apart from this epithet, he was labeled with other epithets as ‘Shameless Rascal’ and ‘Old Burnt Face’. However, he took these epithets as titles or decorations. He was as cheerful as ever. He had the art of saying different things to different people. He had a creative mind. He had a different story for each person depending on what he thought of their individual taste and appreciation. Appamam enjoyed smoking. He used to tell unbelievable stories . He would sit in the sun and sleep in the shade. He played cricket with the writer,s cousins and helped them with their algebra. He was rather lazy. The writer humorously says that he enjoyed life more than anyone else.
