Background
ASK Productions was ran by Indian film director and producer Abdul Sattar Khan.
1st Logo (January 20, 1983)
Logo: On a moving vortex-like background with many colors and smoke, a silhouette of a crescent with a star slowly fades in. It then slowly illuminates itself to reveal a picture of a mosque with the Kaaba in the middle, all encrusted in gold with ten dark striped lines on it. Below it is the text "ASK" and a crescent which says "PRODUCTIONS" with stars between. It stays still for over a few seconds until we finally fade to black.
Technique: Practical effects.
Music/Sounds: Somber-sounding traditional Indian music with a piano, a sitar and a tanpura, followed by a very deep announcer speaking in Hindi.
Availability: Seen only on Ek Bar Chale Aao.
2nd Logo (5 January 1989-1994)
Logo: On a black background, we see the word "ask" on top of a yellow pedestal with a filmstrip sitting on the right side of the letter "a". On the pedestal consists of the word "PRODUCTIONS" in black and 3 black stars can be seen on the right side of the pedestal. Below the pedestal is the word "PRESENTS" in yellow.
Variant: On In India Today, the entire logo is yellow and zooms towards us with a blur effect against a red background. "Presents" is now in a cursive font.
Technique: None.
Music/Sounds: The stock trumpet fanfare first used in Captain Barry.
Music/Sounds Variant: In India Today uses rapidly descending string theme ending with a two-note orchestral sting.
Availability: Seen only on Tujhe Nahin Chhodunga and In India Today.
