1st Logo (March 15, 1956)
Logo: While scrolling over a shot of jewelry, we then see a book containing the company's name in blue and "PRESENTS" in white underneath. Above the text is an emblem of a hand dropping flowers over fire, with the flame behind a yellow circle. Also included in the emblem is a stick holding two bags and a book to the lower right. A human hand opens the book and then the movie's opening credits play as normal.
Technique: Live-action.
Music/Sounds: The opening theme of the movie.
Availability: Seen only on Hatim Tai.
2nd Logo (1961-1965)
Logo: We start with a close up of the same emblem as before, this time hand-drawn and with "ESTD. 1942" on top of the emblem. The camera zooms out quickly to reveal "BASANT PICTURES" in black on a white rectangle underneath the emblem. The logo itself appears to be within a box with the center square resembling a picture frame and the left and right sides having the same color as the center square's inner color.
Variant: On Char Dervesh, the logo is colorized.
Technique: The logo getting closer, the fire.
Music/Sounds: A very loud, if somewhat muted, gong which repeats throughout the logo
Availability: Seen on Sampoorna Ramayana, Char Dervesh, and Nishan.
Legacy: The closeup of the logo and sudden zoom-out, along with the gong which overly repeats, while unintended, could catch people off-guard.
2nd Logo (January 15, 1971)
Logo: We see the same text and emblem from the previous logo, this time as a statue. This statue is place over a blanket full of flowers while smoke rises from the ground and a multi-colored burst rotates clockwise.
Variant: On remastered prints of Shri Krishna Leela the logo is still.
Technique: The multi-colored background spinning and smoke rising from the ground, all shot in live-action.
Music/Sounds: An extreme solo of an tampura plays first, followed by the first part of the opening of the movie.
Availability: Seen only on Shri Krishna Leela.
