Background

Yash Raj Films (YRF) is a company set up by Yash Raj Chopra, an Indian film director and producer. He initially worked for his brother's production company (B.R.

4th Logo (2004- )

Logo: TBA

Variants:

  • The trailer for the film Sultan has the logo be brown, to represent the earthy wrestling arena.
  • Starting around the 2010s, the background turns white, with the exception of the glass Yash Raj logo, and "yash raj films" fades in on the white space.

FX/SFX: All in nice CGI.

Music/Sounds: The 16mm film projector sound with a dreamy sounder with some bells at the beginning, the single sitar pluck followed by the repetitive "squelching" bassline played on Roland TB-303, increasing in the low-pass filter frequency for the reminder of the logo, then some harp strums followed by the timpani roll and the reversed cymbal crash.

Availability: Seen on post-2004 releases from the company. Sometimes, it would plaster older logos, like in the case of Dil To Pagal Hai.
