Logo: On a dark background, we see a globe of Earth rotating in white smoke. Suddenly, we see a hand-made white seed that comes from the globe, and red smoke appears. As the seed is moving down, the globe disappears. The seed stops moving, and suddenly it turns into a white silhouette. The silhouette partially becomes translucent, showing us a Hindu Goddess with a trident and some kind of film roll. Finally we see the arched white text:

SHIVALIK FILMS

Trivia: The animation of earth rotating and the smoke is actually a cut from the opening credits from the film "Bhagwan Samaye Sansar Mein".

Technique: A combination of live action and traditional animation.

Music/Sounds: A typical Indian melody made by a flute until seed becomes a silhouette. From this moment until the text appears, we hear a melody from a kind of Indian lyra. When the text appears, we hear a dissonant, dramatic sting.

Availability: Seen only on "Ambe Maa Jagdambe Maa" and "Waliti Babu".
