1st Logo (1960-1972)


Logo: On a black background, we first see a statue of a rooster. The camera zooms away from it just to reveal that the statue is on top of a model of a globe and also reveals that we are on a mountain range. At the same time, the globe is on top of a table-like thing, containing the big text: "UDAYA", which takes up most of the table's space. The table also contains the text: "UDAYA-NAGAR", being below the word "UDAYA" and the word: "STUDIOS" being below the globe. On the top-left corner, we can see a set of text reading:  EXCEL PRODUCTIONS  Presents fading in. The word "Presents" is also in a script font.

FX/SFX: The zoom-out and the text appearing.

Music/Sounds: A rooster's cry, followed by a fanfare.

Availability: Rare. This was seen on their films during the time such as Thara.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (1975-1980)


Logo: On a sunset background, we see a silhouette of the same rooster statue and globe from the previous logo. It zooms out, just to reveal the same table-like thing containg the same elements from the previous logo, but this time in color. The sun can be seen in the background and a portion of a palm tree can bee seen on the top-left corner.

FX/SFX: The zoom-out and the illumination.

Music/Sounds: The same rooster's cry from before, followed by a held string note and a lyre flourish.

Availability: Rare. Again, this was seen on their films during the time which includes Neela Ponman.

Editor's Note: None.
