Can APP be used for this purpose? ( I want to freeze foreground) If so how?  Do I need to create Mosaics for this? There is an another tool Sequator that does this but I am not having luck with its stacking either..

@schakravarthi Hi Srini. This currently is not possible with APP.

Although it's really not hard to do a stack with APP, then composite it with a single sub that has the landscape nice and sharp.

I stack with APP even when doing landscape astrophotography (if more than ~5-10 minutes of integration) as I think it produces a much better stacked result than Sequator. I then cut out the blurred landscape and blend with an untracked photo in Photoshop. You can't really use the remove light pollution tool though as the gradients produced by the blurry landscape really throws off the process.
