It's a weird combination that Gopalan Manoj's 'Saaradhi' has in store, when it blends together some time tested conventionalities with a plotline that serves a few surprises. Zooming ahead at a brisk space, 'Saaradhi' rapidly runs into red lights on its narrative, and takes us along on a jerky ride that is little fun and lot more tedium.Christy (Sunny Wayne) an ambulance driver, is assigned the task of delivering a dead body to Kulirmala, and accompanied by wailing relatives of the deceased, embarks on the drive. He soon starts suspecting that all isn't well when his co-passengers start making demands that sound unusually odd. The best instants in 'Saaradhi' appear pretty soon, when scenarist Rajesh K Raman throws in a few shocker elements into the plot all on a sudden, thereby setting the stage for a thriller. When a few characters do a volte-face all on a sudden, Christy is taken aback, and you brace yourself for more gripping disclosures.However, the film's moments of glory are short-lived, since from then on, 'Saaradhi' goes on a drive downhill and struggles to live up to the expectations that it had initially raised. By the time it finally draws to a close a couple of hours later, it evolves into an aspirant thriller that has to make do with a few decent kicks of excitement here and there.
