Akshay Oberoi Gears Up for Psychological Thriller 'Resident'

In November 2025, Bollywood actor Akshay Oberoi is gearing up to start shooting for his next film, a psychological thriller titled 'Resident'. The film, directed by Akash Goila and produced by Filmeraa, promises to take audiences on a gripping and unsettling journey into the human mind.

Oberoi, known for his ability to seamlessly slip into diverse and unconventional characters, will be taking on the lead role in this intense narrative that explores the darker corners of human psychology. Discussing the project, the actor shared that he has always been drawn to stories that challenge him as an actor, roles that demand emotional depth, unpredictability, and a bit of risk.

"Resident is exactly that kind of film," Oberoi explained. "It's a psychological thriller that doesn't just rely on fear or suspense, but digs deep into the psyche of its characters. The genre itself is dark, layered, and inevitable in its impact, it makes you confront truths you often avoid."

After his previous film, 'Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari', which had a completely different tone, Oberoi was eager to immerse himself in something more intense and thought-provoking. With 'Resident', the actor continues to strengthen his reputation as one of the few in the industry who constantly experiments with roles that break away from the mainstream mold.

The film is expected to go on floors soon, with more details about the cast and production team to be announced in the coming weeks.
