Introduction
Saaraa is a commercial thriller that mixes romance, suspense, and loud comedy. What begins as a simple love story quickly turns into a bizarre kidnapping drama driven entirely by Chellakutty’s unpredictable character.
Storyline
Sakshi Agarwal, a civil engineer, falls in love with her colleague Vijay Vishwa and marries him.
Just when life seems smooth, Robo Shankar — the company’s security guard — attempts to kill her.
But before he can succeed, Chellakutty, a clownish construction worker, kidnaps both Sakshi and Vijay.
The film revolves around why he kidnaps them and the twists that unfold through humour and suspense.
