Vidyashree Pictures

Logo description and capture by naxo-olé, rj4712, and Roz1497 Editions by Nightspears

1st Logo (1986)


NOTE: This logo is NOT Nazi-related.

Nicknames: "The Peaceful Swastika", "Green Swastika From Heaven"

Logo: On footage of a ocean with the sun rising, we see a green swastika in a green box zooming out. As it stops in the middle, "VIDYASHREE FILMS PRESENTS" in green appears below.

FX/SFX: The background footage (which is actually the opening of the movie), and the swastika.

Music/Sounds: A peaceful tune.

Availability: Only seen on Sadaa Suhagan.

Editor's Note: It should be noted that even though it was adopted by the Nazis in the 1930s, the swastika originated in South Asia (the first archaeological record is from 3000 BC), and has been used by Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism from the 5th century BC, up to today. It usually means "good luck". This logo uses the original version of the symbol, (called the manji) instead of the Nazi version which was tilted at a right angle.

2nd logo (1989)


Nicknames: "Seizure-Inducing Swastika From Hell", "The Manji of Doom"

Logo: On a black background, we see a swastika (or a manji symbol) spinning and changing colors quickly (red, yellow, blue, orange and white, several times, but in a different order some of the times). When the swastika turns orange, it stops spinning, but it zooms a little bit more. Then, "VIDYASHREE PICTURES" appears below the swastika, and turns on, so the light is blue, but the text is white.

FX/SFX: The swastika spinning, changing colors and zooming out, and the text apparition and illumination. It seems to be hand-made animation.

Music/Sounds: A creepy whoosh, followed by a shrill of a violin and two dark notes with a synth. When the text appears, there's another whoosh and two other dark notes with the synth.

Availability: Seen only on Kala Bazaar.

Editor's Note: See the last logo.
