Varuna Films Creations

(March 13, 1979-1985)

Notice: this template has been replaced by {{Guidance}} and {{Guidance detail}}

Nicknames: "The Storm Logo", "The Rainey Logo", "Sad Storm", "Creepy Storm"

Logo: We start off with 2 sets of clouds slowly reaching towards each other against a stormy background. Suddenly, bolts of lightning rip through the sky (similar to the one used in the Dharma Vijaya Pictures logo), causing a bunch of rain to start appearing, and even more bolts of lightning appears not so long after. After that, 2D-animated rain droplets form the company's name letter-by-letter in the color blue and once that is complete, "CHIKMAGALUR" appears below the company name letter-by-letter.

Variants: From 1981 and onwards, the company’s name has been changed to “VARUNA FILMS CREATIONS”. It is also in a different font. The lightening animation is also different.

FX/SFX: 2D animation for the clouds, the lightning and the droplets forming the company name, and live action for the rain droplets in the background.

Music/Sounds: Windy sounds at the beginning, which is followed by a bunch of thunder sounds, and an eerie 11-note bell theme which is synced to the company name forming with a few more bell strums at the end.

Music/Sounds Variants: From 1981 and onwards, the bell theme is played twice to give time for the word “CREATIONS”.

Availability: Rare. This was seen on Putaani Agent 123, Prachanda Putanigalu, Nyaya Gedditu, Prema Yuddha and Thrishula.

Editor's Note: The ominous atmosphere along with the thunder and the sad tune can scare many. Not helping is that it appeared on films targeted towards children like Putaani Agent 123, so this can definitely scare minors.
