Background

Rangeela Productions was a film production company in Pakistan created by Saeed Khan Rangeela in 1969. The company's first film was Diya Aur Toofan, which was released on May 9, 1969.

1st Logo (May 9, 1969-1972)

Nickname: "The Man and the Horse"

Logo: We see a man walking by, what it appears to be a house, doing his hair. We then cut to his face, which looks kind of worried. Next we cut to a white horse on a black background before cutting back to the man's face, which is more worried. We cut back to the horse, this time in a different position while moving his snout. We finally cut back to the man, which turns left, looking for anyone around him. After 4 seconds, he smiles & laughs. Finally, we see the hard-to-read text "RANGEELA PRODUCTION" in white & "Presents", also white in cursive. It all ends with the fade-out effect.

FX/SFX: Live action for the scenes and animation for the text.

Music/Sounds: A series of distorted noises throughout the logo.

Avaiability: Ultra rare. Was seen on their earliest movies from them.

Editor's Note: This logo might creep you out with the noises, the dark environment and the man.

2nd Logo (1971-1986)

Logo: We zoom out from a flaming figure on top of a pedestal, with an image of a filmstrip circling below. The camera then quickly moves into the filmstrip which reads "Rangeela Productions".

Variants:

  • On Aurat Raj, due to deterioration, the logo has a red hue to it, which makes some of the footage hard to see.
  • On Gulli, the first part is only shown.

FX/SFX: Live-action.

Music/Sounds: A drumroll with a bombastic male announcer. A 3-note triumphant brass fanfare follows.

Availability: Rare. Seen on Dil Aur Duniya, Meri Mohabbat Teray Hawalay, and Aurat Raj. The cut-off variants can seen on Khoobsurat Shaitan and Gulli.

Editor's Note: This has been a weird logo among the logo community, due to the questionable nature & the fact that the flaming figure was included, especially for the Aurat Raj Version, which can be creepy to some.

3rd Logo (1972-1973)

Nickname: "The Great Explosion of Rangeela"

Logo: We see footage of an explosion (actually part of the first scene of Kubra Ashiq). After a few seconds, it freezes, and the text in black "RANGEELA PRODUCTIONS" and "Present" in below the name of the company with "Present" in a script font fade in. It then cuts to footage of a war going on, before cutting to the official film itself. The entire logo is tinted orange.

Variant: On Do Rangeeley, the text is red and the footage is brighter and desaturated.

FX/SFX: The live-action footage with the text superimposed.

Music/Sounds: The sound of the explosion.

Availability: Extremely rare. Seen on Kubra Ashiq and Do Rangeeley.

Editor's Note: This has been known for being one of the scariest Pakistan logos, thanks to the weird & ominous sounds & the nature. The Do Rangeeley version is tamer, but it's still eerie.
