Logo: On a sunset background, we see a boat from the front, on a lake with some plants. Then, the boat turns 90 degrees to show us a statue of a man paddling and a woman posing. On the boat we read "CHITHRALAYA", which is reflected in the water, along with the boat and the statues.

Variants:

• On its early years, the logo is slightly different and in black and white.
• On its Tamil language films released by the same company, "CHITHRALAYA"´ is in Tamil. In addition, in some of these movies, the background is different, the text is in red, and the camera shoots the same logo from a higher angle.

Technique: Live-action.

Music/Sounds: A melody made by a flute.

Music/Sounds Variant: The Tamil variant uses 2 lyre glissandos heard at the start and end of the logo.

Availability: The English version was seen on Dil Ek Mandir, Pyar Kiye Jaa, Dharti, and Gehri Chaal, while the Tamil version is seen on Nenjil Oru Aalayam, Kadhalikka Neramillai, Vennira Aadai, Avalukkendru Oru Manam, Vaira Nenjam, and Naanum Oru Thozhilali.
