Kuso Films

(1985-1989)

Logo: In a dark setting with two candles on both sides, a white Om symbol in the middle fades in and zooms into the screen (a la Viacom V of Doom) until it gets close, which then fades out. This repeats about three times and as the 3rd Om symbol appears, a light slowly illuminates the background, which appears to be an altar of 2 pictures of Hindu saints, which also appears to be on top of a table. The company name doesn't appear.

Technique: Traditional animation for the Om symbol, Live action for the illumination.

Music/Sounds: A tampura rolling with a repetitive harp tune, a woman chanting as the symbol appears, which again, repeats three times, and strums of a lyre when the altar is fully exposed.

Availability: Seen on two Marathi films Vahinichi Maya, and Ek Ratra Mantraleli.
