Scuzi by Naga Chaitanya: Hyderabad’s New Comfort Food Haven Delivered to Your Doorstep

Hyderabad’s dynamic culinary landscape has just welcomed a fresh entrant—and it comes with star power. Celebrated actor Akkineni Naga Chaitanya, known for his finesse on-screen and now off-screen, is expanding his presence in the food and beverage space. After the notable success of Shoyu, his pan-Asian cloud kitchen, Chaitanya has launched Scuzi, a gourmet delivery-only brand that reimagines comfort food with an inventive twist.

Launched in March 2025, Scuzi is more than just a cloud kitchen—it’s a thoughtful culinary brand that combines familiarity with innovation. Drawing from global travel and an appreciation for heartwarming meals, the founders—Akkineni Naga Chaitanya, Varun Tripuraneni, Arjun, and Saniya Jaiswal—have curated a menu that feels like a warm hug after a long day, but plated with sophistication.

From gooey, cheese-laden pizzas to nourishing bowls and indulgent desserts, Scuzi's offerings are meant to suit every mood. Hero dishes like the Chowringhee and Pepperoni Pizzas, The Home Run Burger, and Rigatoni Bianca Truffle Pasta bring a rich mix of Indian and global sensibilities to the table. For the health-conscious, there’s the Charred Broccoli and Hummus Bowl, which marries nutrition with bold flavor. And for those craving something sweet? The classic Churros arrive golden, crisp, and impossible to resist.

At the heart of Scuzi is an idea that resonates with everyone—comfort. “Our vision for Scuzi is to offer customers a comforting, wholesome meal that feels like home,” shares founder Akkineni Naga Chaitanya. “We're committed to delivering high-quality, satisfying bites of happiness that cater to every palate.”

With a focus on seamless access, Scuzi operates via Swiggy and Zomato, bringing gourmet comfort food directly to Hyderabad’s homes—whether for a quiet solo dinner, a weekend binge-watch session, or a cozy family meal.

What sets Scuzi apart in an increasingly crowded cloud kitchen space is its authenticity and detail-driven execution. The dishes reflect a cosmopolitan sensibility, yet remain rooted in comfort—something rarely achieved in delivery-only formats. This attention to taste, presentation, and packaging positions Scuzi as a standout option for discerning foodies.

It’s not uncommon for celebrities to venture into hospitality, but few bring the kind of hands-on vision that Chaitanya and his team demonstrate. Having already built momentum with Shoyu, his flair for identifying emerging food trends and transforming them into successful delivery concepts is clearly evident. Scuzi, in many ways, is a continuation of that journey—rooted in passion, guided by experience, and driven by a desire to offer something personal yet universal.

In a time where food is increasingly about convenience, Scuzi makes a compelling case for emotional resonance. It’s comfort food—but not as you’ve always known it. It’s a quiet revolution in a delivery box. And for Hyderabadis, it’s a new reason to stay in and eat well.
