Visuals: Settled in a dark environment with smoke occurring, a light brightens what appears to be a white Lakshmi statue being on a gray parallelepiped containing the white text "PADMALAYA PICTURES" on it. All of it is on a hard surface, surrounded by various petals and fruits below, as well as two candles and two golden duck statues on each side.
Variants:
- On Eenadu, the duck statues are omitted.
- On Himmatwala, the logo takes place on a red flashing background with bubbles shown floating around, as well as the red text "PADMALAYA FILMS" below.
- On later releases from the company, the logo takes place over a blue curtain background, being surrounded by fruits and petals more, and the text would be replaced with a red "PADMALAYA STUDIOS".
Technique: Live-action model work.
