Actor Raiza Wilson's upcoming science-fiction supernatural fantasy thriller 'Nova' is set to release in theatres from September. Director Milo announced the release window on Instagram, sharing a poster that read 'In theatres from September'. The film, structured as a story within a story, features Raiza in a key flashback role. She described it as combining action, thriller, and science-fiction elements, marking a first for her in terms of story and role. The shoot took place in the forests of Marayoor in Kerala, including sandalwood forests where obtaining permission is difficult, with challenges including leeches, mist, rain, and slippery paths. The cast also includes Dhruva, Advithi Shetty, Hridika Biswas, Joe John Chacko, Sendrayan, Swathika, and Krishna. Roya Fortuna Creations, which backed 'Partner', is producing the film. Nova will be released in Tamil and Telugu.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Raiza Wilson, known for her breakout role in 'Pyaar Prema Kaadhal', is stepping into genre cinema with this sci-fi fantasy thriller. The film's production in restricted forest zones of the Western Ghats indicates a focus on authentic natural backdrops, a trend in Indian independent cinema. The September release window places it in a competitive period post-festival season. Box office performance will depend on word-of-mouth and the strength of its genre appeal, especially as a non-mainstream Tamil-Telugu bilingual.
