Dear Sushree Sahani,
I believe, you are a law graduate too. First statement is just to get familiar with your profile.
As far as copyright is concerned, you need not bother much about it as copyright exists even without registration (As I understand from your query, your friend would like to make more profit in less investment for his first project.). You may very well go for TM registration, Title registration etc. Although acquiring a registration certificate is a long drawn process (takes 1-3 years depending upon the nature of application) but at the same time protection is given right from the day when application is accepted.
Write back for any further clarification
