'''Legacy:''' The dramatic fanfare accompanied by the revealment of the logo will surprise and haunt many people, given the first 4 preceding seconds of silence, and the same fanfare playing at the beginning of the Paanch Qaidi opening credits may also catch some viewers off guard. The darkness can also contribute to pale toes as well. Thankfully, the next logo is less scarier.

1st Logo (July 1, 1981)

Notice: this template has been replaced by {{Guidance}} and {{Guidance detail}}

Logo: We see on a dark room a supposed big circle. When the candle, above the table, is turned up, we see that the big circle is part of a statue; the statue is a Goddess with lots of weapons (sword, bow and arrows, tridents...) in her arms, and riding a tiger. Below the statue we see yellow flowers and one red rose and other pink one, which are behind the candle. All that mentioned before is above a table with red altar roth. Suddenly, we see "MANISH FILMS" zooming in after appearing with a blur effect.

Trivia: This woman is Durga, the Goddess of Victory of Good over Evil.

FX/SFX: The candle turned up and the text blurring in.

Music/Sounds: After 4 seconds of silence, we hear a very ominous orchestra fanfare which gets more sinister towards the ending. The same fanfare plays during the beginning of the opening credits of the film.

Availability: Rare. Only seen on Paanch Qaidi.

2nd Logo (1985, 1989)

Logo: We see a different statue of Durga on a tiger, but now on a podium on a stage or something like that (instead on a dark room). Then the text "MANISH FILMS" fades under the goddess.

Variant: In Meri Zabaan, the lights are white and illuminate intensely, and the text appear in a blur effect, like the previous logo. The text also says "MANISH MOVIES" instead of "MANISH FILMS"

FX/SFX: The red lights turning up slowly and the fade-in of the text.

Music/Sounds:

  • Maa Kasam: A relaxing flute melody, which is followed by other chord instrument.
  • Meri Zabaan: A fragment from the Sham Ralhan Pictures logo music, which would be used lately by Baldevjiu Productions and Kalamat Productions.

Availability: The Manish Movies variant is seen on Meri Zabaan and the original Manish Films variant is seen on Maa Kasam.

3rd Logo (October 12, 2001)

Logo: On a wall of orange background and red mountains, we see a poster of Durga riding a tiger. At the left side we see incense sticks burning, and in front of the poster we see some red and yellow apples. "MANISH FILMS" in yellow is below the poster.

FX/SFX: The text. The logo is live action.

Music/Sounds: A happy melody made by a synth.
