curl : Failed to store data in DB

Using curl in my project first time. Trying to generate curl request to register user but data is not stored in my database.

The code to make curl request after form submission:

web.php file

Route::post('/submit-form', 'Auth\RegisterController@postRequest')->name('submit-form');

public function postRequest(){
        $data = ['Name'=>'abc', 'Email'=>'[email protected]'];
        $url = 'http://localhost/myproject/public/index.php/postReqFromView';
        try{
            $ch = curl_init();
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
            curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,$data);
            curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
            $server_output = curl_exec($ch);
            curl_close ($ch);
            print_r($server_output);
        }
        catch (\Exception $exp){
            print_r($exp->getMessage());
        }
    }

The following controller is in my other project where I am trying to receive the request and process it

api.php file

Route::post('/postReqFromView', 'studentRegisterController@postRequest');

my controller

  public function postRequest(Request $request){
       $abc = DB::table('tbl_users')->insert(['username' => $request->Name, 'email' => $request->Email]);
        return $abc ;
    }

Please help me out
