Akshay Oberoi reflects on 10 Years of "Pizza", highlights untapped potential in Indian Horror Cinema

As the iconic horror film "Pizza" celebrates its tenth anniversary, Akshay Oberoi, renowned for his gripping portrayal of Kunal, reflects on the enduring legacy of the cult classic and the untapped potential of the horror genre in Indian cinema.

Originally a remake of the Tamil hit film "Pizza," the narrative of "Pizza" revolves around Kunal, a delivery boy portrayed by Akshay Oberoi, whose ordinary life takes a spine-chilling turn when a routine delivery unravels a web of dark secrets within a seemingly innocent household. The film's enduring appeal lies in its suspenseful storytelling and the haunting question of whether Kunal can confront the malevolent forces lurking in the shadows.

Speaking on the milestone anniversary, Akshay Oberoi remarked, " 'Pizza' holds a special place in my heart as it marked my journey into the horror genre, which remains largely unexplored in its full potential within Indian cinema. Even after a decade, the film continues to resonate with audiences, underscoring our collective fascination with supernatural thrillers."

Akshay continued, "While 'Pizza' was a significant step forward, I believe there's still much ground to cover in pushing the boundaries of horror storytelling in India. We have merely scratched the surface of what the genre can achieve in terms of narrative complexity and audience engagement."

As India's cinema landscape evolves, Akshay Oberoi remains committed to exploring new dimensions in horror filmmaking, aiming to captivate audiences with innovative narratives that redefine the genre's conventions.
