From 1978, before the logo with the elephant, we see a portrait of Devar (the founder of the company, who died that year), with three white lines above his eyes. The portrait has four rows of red, yellow, black and white flowers. In front of the portrait, there are two candles. Then, an image of Murugan fades in.

Then, the camera appears closer to the frame, while the elephant is moving its trunk outside the frame.
