Background
Nalanda was a film production company from India.
Logo (December 10, 1965-July 26, 1974)
Visuals: There is an image of the Ashoka Chakra's design over a wall (which varies in style depending on the film). On top of it is "nalanda" in a Sanskrit-like font with "PRESENTS".
Variants:
- An early version exists where the text is sculpted underneath the Chakra and a white "PRESENTS" sits below the text.
- In Prem Shastra, the text is seen arching around the top portion of the Chakra.
Technique: Chroma-keyed effects.
Audio: A gong at the beginning of the logo, followed by an Indian string fanfare with some notes on a swarmandal at the end.
Audio Variant: The Prem Shastra variant uses two bell gongs.
Availability: Seen on Gambler while the early version is seen in Teen Devian. It was also seen in Prem Shastra.
2nd Logo (May 6, 1981-September 28, 1984)
Visuals: The logo essentially consists of a modeled replica of the Ashoka Chakra with the company name above it in red and in a similar font style against a black wall.
Technique: A still printed-image.
Audio: A gentle string and piano piece that starts with an ascending swarmandal glissando.
Audio Variant: On Rocky, there isn't any audio featured.
