Navaratna Films

(28 April 1978-7 January 1983)


Logo: Against a sparkling starfield, We see a flashing multi-colored octagon zooming in slowly towards us. Another octagon which is composed of 4 flashing right triangles appears from the viewer and zooms atowards the other octagon, with 4 more flashing triangles appearing between the other 4 triangles. Once they make contact with each other, 2 sets of text being "timesnewroman" and "timesnewroman" fades in between the octagon, with "NAVARATNA" being on top, curving around the octagon and "films" sitting at the bottom. A shape fills out the remaining spots of the flashing octagon not so long after. It all transitions to the opening credits of the movie.

Technique: Traditional animation.

Audio: A strange xylophone and tampura melody with a held note of a violin. It repeats as the logo stands still, and then it continues to the movie.

Availability: Seen on Besharam and Chatpatee.
