I need to check if user sends a .mp4 file with specified name (for example: pizza), and if that's true, bot send a message. Is there's a way i can do that?

There's a better way to do this that isn't addressed in the dupe. The file object contains an attribute filename. You can then iterate over all the attachments and check for the file:

for file in <your message object goes here>.attachments:
    if file.url == 'pizza.mp4':
        # do stuff

Try this in your on_message event:

@bot.event
async def on_message(message):
    if message.guild is None and message.author != bot.user: # dm message
        try:
            file = message.attachments[0] # try getting the file
            if "pizza" in str(file.url): # check if name is in the URL
                await ctx.send("message") # send message
        except: # user did not send a file/attachment
            pass
