Ramu Films

Logo descriptions by Photos by Video captures by Editions by WetPaintLogo1993 and jupiterboy

Background: TBA

1st Logo (2000-2002, 2010)

Ramu Enterprises (2000)Nicknames: "Majestic Non-Kannada Tower", "Low-Budget Indian 20th Century Fox"

Logo: On a midnight background, we see a 20th Century Fox-esque tower that consists of the stacked text "RAMU ENTERPRISES", which is in a bold Gill Sans font. The tower has two rows, the searchlights are in a different position, and the color is changed a bit.

Variant: An enhanced variant of the logo debuted with Law and Order.

FX/SFX: TBA

Music/Sounds: The 1982 20th Century Fox fanfare, but high-pitched and with a part of the drumroll at the beginning cut. A whoosh also plays once the logo starts. Gandede has the drumroll and whoosh cut. Law and Order used a heroic fanfare.

Availability: Seen on Chamundi, and the enhanced variant has made a surprise appearance with Gandede.

Editor's Note: TBA

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (2004-2011) Ramu Enterprises (2008) [NTSC]

Nicknames: "Ultra Majestic Kannada Tower", "Not-So-Bad 20th Century Fox Ripoff"

Logo: An exact copy of the 1994 20th Century Fox logo, complete with the panning and the searchlights swooping across the screen, but with the "20th Century Fox" text replaced with the Kannada words for "Ramu Films". When the camera settles, the subtitle "RAMU FILMS" (2004-2005) or "RAMU ENTERPRISES" (2008-2011) fades in below the structure.

Variant: Kanteerava had a sepia-style tint through the logo.

FX/SFX: The camera panning and the moving searchlights.

Music/Sounds:

Kalasipalya had a loud majestic fanfare, as seen on the video on the right. Auto Shankar had the logo with a dramatic orchestral fanfare. Gooli had the complete 1997 20th Century Fox fanfare, but high pitched with some loud whooshes. Masti and Gulama had a news-like fanfare. Kanteerava had the complete 20th Century Fox fanfare again, (In this case, they use the John Williams fanfare) with the 1st half of the drumroll repeated twice.

Availability: Very rare. Was seen on the Kannada movies listed above. Don't expect to see this in Kiccha.

Editor's Note: For a logo that is such a blatant knockoff, it's surprisingly not that bad in terms of animation quality.
