Here's my form action.

<form action="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri()  . "/add_restaurant.php"; ?>" id="add_restaurant" method="post">

• Thanks for the Negative Point. Was extremely frustrated after doing a lot of research. That's why I asked the question here. – Sunil Chandurkar Commented Sep 26, 2019 at 20:03

Could you post your code... its better way to help you.

So, I guess you have html form ?

An idea :

Don't specify any path on your form and let manage it into your functions.php

add_action('init', 'my_form_process');
function my_form_process(){
  // Do nonce check, Post check...
}

Have look for Nonce security check : Nonce WordPress page
