For filmmakers & creators
Your film deserves a premiere, not a folder.
ZELVU Play premieres independent Indian films, web series and vertical micro-dramas to paying members and pay-per-view audiences across India and the diaspora. You keep your rights; we bring the audience and the payments.

What we look for
- Feature films, short films, documentaries and web series in any Indian language, with subtitles or willing to add them.
- Vertical micro-drama series (1–3 minute episodes shot for phones) and short-form creators who want a paid premiere home for their best work.
- Clean chain of title: you hold the streaming rights, including music and performers, and can show it.
- Completed films first; strong works-in-progress with a delivery date are welcome.
What happens next
- Submit the form with a private screener link. We watch everything ourselves.
- Within about 7 working days you hear back. Selected films receive a plain-language licence proposal: term, territory, exclusivity and the revenue split.
- You deliver the master (ProRes/H.264, 1080p or 4K) and artwork; we encode, schedule the premiere and promote it to members.
- Statements and payouts every month for the life of the licence.
