Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the official website of the film Melcow Pondicherry and any dealings with Arun Gopy Excitements (in association with Justin & Mathew Entertainments) — referred to as “we”, “us” or “our”.

01Acceptance of Terms

By accessing this website, or by working with us on our productions, services or content, you become a “User”, “Client” or “Partner” and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the website and our services.

02About Us & Our Services

Arun Gopy Excitements is a film production house based in Ernakulam, Kerala. Our activities include:

• Film and video production;
• Distribution and marketing of films, including Melcow Pondicherry;
• Creative services such as scriptwriting, editing, design and promotions;
• Events, promotional activities and media-related work.

Specific projects may be covered by separate written agreements, which will apply in addition to these Terms.

03Use of the Website

You agree to use this website only for lawful purposes. You must not:

• copy, record, re-upload or redistribute the trailer, songs, posters or any other film material for commercial purposes;
• attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, its servers or any connected systems;
• use the contact form to send spam, abusive, misleading or unlawful content;
• upload or share any pirated copy of Melcow Pondicherry. Film piracy is an offence under the Cinematograph Act, 1952 and the Copyright Act, 1957.

04Intellectual Property

All content on this website — including the film title and logo, trailer, video songs, posters, stills, artwork, music and text — is owned by or licensed to us and is protected by copyright and trademark laws. Unless a written agreement says otherwise, all creative works we produce (films, scripts, music, artwork and promotional material) remain our property.

You may share links to our pages and our official posts on social media for personal, non-commercial use, provided the content is not altered.

05Your Submissions

When you send us information or material (through the contact form, email or otherwise), you confirm that it is accurate and that you have the rights to share it. Clients and partners must ensure that any material they provide — logos, footage, music or scripts — is original or properly licensed and does not infringe anyone else's rights. Unsolicited story or script ideas are received without any obligation of confidentiality or compensation unless agreed in writing.

06Confidentiality

Business, script and project details shared with us in the course of a professional engagement are treated as confidential and will not be disclosed without consent, except where required by law.

07Fees & Payments

For any paid engagement, invoices must be settled within the agreed timelines. Late payments may attract late fees and may lead to work being paused. Refunds, if any, follow the terms of the specific project agreement. Movie tickets are sold by independent ticketing platforms and cinemas; their own terms and refund policies apply to ticket purchases.

08Release Dates & Changes

Release dates, show timings, cast details and promotional content shown on this website are provided in good faith and may change. We may reschedule, postpone or cancel releases, events or projects due to circumstances beyond our control, such as technical failures, natural events, censorship requirements or legal restrictions. Where a client cancels a confirmed engagement, costs incurred up to the cancellation date are payable.

09Use of Likeness

Cast, crew and participants in our productions and events consent to the use of their name, image, voice and performance in promotional and distribution activities, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Visitors attending promotional events may be photographed or filmed, and such footage may be used in our promotions.

10Third-Party Services & Links

This website links to third-party platforms such as ticket-booking sites, video and music platforms, maps and social media. We do not control these services and are not responsible for their content, availability or practices. In our productions we may work with external vendors (equipment rental, studios, technicians); while we choose them carefully, we are not liable for issues caused by third parties.

11Limitation of Liability

The website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of the website or our services. For paid engagements, our maximum liability is limited to the total amount paid by the client for the relevant project.

12Termination

We may restrict access to the website, or end a project or engagement, if these Terms are breached or if the activity involves illegal, unethical or harmful conduct.

13Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at Ernakulam, Kerala.

14Amendments

We may update these Terms at any time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with a new effective date. Continuing to use the website or our services after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
