===Background===
'''Fox Star Studios''' is an Indian film production company. It was formed by [[20th Century Studios|20th Century '''Fox''']] and Asia's [[Disney Star IDs (India)|'''STAR''' TV]] (later in 2011 as Star India, now known as Disney Star; both News Corporation subsidiaries at the time) as '''Fox Star Studios''' in 2008 to distribute any film from 20th Century Fox in India or produce Bollywood hits such as ''My Name is Khan''. The first film they distributed was ''Australia'', and the first Bollywood movie they distributed was the British-produced ''Slumdog Millionaire'' (as ''Slumdog CorepatiCrorepati''). Previously, Fox operated an Indian branch until 2005 when it was closed down. Distribution of Fox titles in that region would be handled by [[Warner Bros. Pictures]] until 2008. On January 17, 2020, The Walt Disney Company announced that 20th Century Fox would be rebranded to 20th Century Studios; however, Fox Star Studios retained its name until May 27, 2022, when the parent company Disney announced that it would remove "Fox" from the company's name, presumably to avoid confusion with Fox Corporation, renaming it to '''Star Studios''', exactly two years after Disney began dropping the Fox name from several sister units including 20th Century Studios. It wouldn't have an on-screen logo until September 9, 2022, with the release of ''Brahmāstra: Part One – Shiva''.

'''Visuals:''' Same as the 2009-2020 [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] logo, but the text on the standard structure is instead replaced by "'''FOX STAR STUDIOS'''", with STAR TV's 1998 star symbol next to "STAR" and fitting snugly below the "'''X'''" while piercing the lines above it.
'''Bylines:'''
* February 10, 2010-September 27, 2013: "{{font|Times New Roman|'''A NEWS CORPORATION COMPANY'''}}"
* November 28, 2013-April 1, 2022: Bylineless
'''Variants:'''
* Sometimes, a <u>static version</u> of the logo (which is an edit of the 1994 TCF logo) is used.
* A <u>prototype version of the logo</u> exists. Like the prototype TCF logo, white wireframes appear when the logo is in its position.
* <u>Open-matte versions</u> of the logo exist.
* Sometimes, the <u>registered trademark sign</u> is removed from the logo.
* Starting with the release of ''<u>Bullett Raja</u>'' on November 28, 2013 in the US and a day later in India, the News Corporation byline is excluded and the logo is bylineless for the first time ever, due to the aforementioned split on June 28, 2013.
'''Closing Variants:''' Commonly, no closing logo is used at all, except for a few exceptions:
* On films such as ''Shikara'', the print logo is seen, scrolling with the credits.
* On films such as ''Hawaa Hawaai'', a still image of the opening logo appears on a rectangular box.
* On ''Jannat 2'', the 1994 TCF-styled version of the logo is seen on a square box.
'''Technique:''' CGI by the now-defunct [[Blue Sky Studios]]. As with the final 20th Century Fox logo, this was made using Autodesk Maya.
'''Audio:''' The 1998 revision of the 1997 Fox fanfare composed by David Newman. None for the still version.
'''Availability:''' The logo can be found on any movie distributed by Fox Star Studios in India.
* It was first shown before ''My Name is Khan'', even before the [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] logo (non-US version) or the [[Searchlight Pictures|Fox Searchlight Pictures]] logo (US version) itself.
* The still version can be found on the trailers for ''Quick Gun Murugun'' (2009) and ''My Name is Khan'' (2010), however, the full logo does not appear on the former, as the Indian division of 20th Century Fox distributed it instead.
* The last film to use this logo with the News Corporation byline was ''Raja Rani'', released on September 27, 2013.
* This logo surprisingly replaces the final 20th Century Fox logo on Indian releases of ''Epic'', with the logo for [[Blue Sky Studios]] intact.
* On US releases of ''Dum Maaro Dum'', the Fox Searchlight Pictures logo appears instead.
* The last film to use this logo was ''Kaun Pravin Tambe?'', released on April 1, 2022 on Disney+ Hotstar. This logo was discontinued afterwards.

'''Closing Variant:''' At the end of films, the print logo is seen, scrolling with the credits.

'''Music/Sounds:''' A brand new rendition of the 20th Century Studios fanfare. This version has Indian instruments such as sitar, sarod, tambura, sahnai, sarangi, and tabla being heard in the composition. It also sounds similar to the 1979 and 1982 fanfares. Arranged by A.R. Rahman. ▼
