'''Visuals:''' An updated version of the previous logo, with the space scenery having less galaxies and more moving stars. At the beginning, images of planets Jupiter and Saturn on the bottom-right and left corners respectively, along with an image of the Andromeda galaxy on the top-right of the background fade in and zoom in towards the viewer, which all fade out after a few seconds as a spinning model of the earth emerges from the bottom-left corner of the screen and zooms to the center of the background. Shortly after stopping, the same "SKF" travels to the center of the earth, leaving a sky-blue trail. The initials appear and zoom seven times before a differently-styled, brighter-colored hand fades in behind the earth. This is followed by a set of white rays appearing behind the SKF logo, which is paired with the company name in the same style as the previous logo.
'''Variants:''' In its first initial appearances, the company name was displayed as "Shantketan Film Combines".
'''Technique:''' Scanimate animation and live action with some chroma-keyed effects at certain points.
'''Audio:''' Staring with a tampura rolling in the background, multiple synthesized glissandos play when the "SKF" is first shown, and a melody is made by a woodwind instrument when the company's name appears.
'''Audio Variant:'''
▲*''Shradhanjali'': It starts off with a few ascending vibraphone notes, followed by a dreamy synthesized tune when the "SKF" is first shown, which gets more dramatic as more elements appear in the logo. When the text appears, a dramatic chorus with bells ringing is heard.
▲*''Bandhan Kuchchey Dhaagon Ka'' - ''Policewala Gunda'': We first hear a tampura rolling in the background, along with multiple synthesized glissandos when the "SKF" is first shown, and a melody made by a woodwind instrument when the company's name appears.
'''Availability:''' Seen on ''Elaan E Jung'', ''Tahalka'', ''Maa'' and ''Policewala Gunda''.
▲* The original 1981 logo was seen on ''Shradhanjali'', ''Bandhan Kuchchey Dhaagon Ka'' and ''Hukumat''.
