Audio: A great action melody made by a sitar.

Availability: Seen on Meenar.

2nd Logo (December 9, 1960-January 1, 1966)
Visuals: We see the same statue of the previous logo, just zoomed in, before the lights have been turned up.

Variant: On Barsaat Ki Raat, the logo zooms in a little bit towards the end.

Technique: Practical effects.

 * Barsaat Ki Raat: A six-note flute theme.
