Logo: On a red cloudy background, we see a disc with a carved image of the Hindu god Shiva (depicted with three heads), and Hindu writing around the disc. It then zooms out to show it standing on a rectangular block with "ॐ नमः शिवाय" (Om Namah Shivaya, in Latin script) on it. It then cuts to footage of stock lightning. It then freezes as the Hindu announcer speaks. Like most Indian logos, the company name does not appear.

Variants:

The film quality of the thunder may vary depending on print. It can either be in blue or white.
Starting in 1990, the stock lightning footage isn't present.
On Paththar, the footage is dark red-tinted.
On Parwana, the footage is darker and slightly green-ish tinted.

Technique: Live-action, with the exception of the lightning which is hand-drawn.

Audio: A creepy chorus saying "Om Namah Shivayal" (which means "Om, adoration to Lord Shiva" in English), three times. Then some thunder noises when the stock lightning footage appears, then a male announcer saying, "Despite heavy snow and raging storms, those flowers will bloom, that have to bloom" in Hindi.

Audio Variant: The later variant uses a different chorus.

Availability: Seen on Hum Se Hai Zamana, Paththar, Hum Se Na Takrana, and Parwana. It would likely be seen on more films from the company.
