Visuals: On a black background, we see two models of the Maruthamalai Marudhachalamurthy Temple and the Hindu god Murugan with a peacock on his back standing on top of a table covered with flowers and two bowls and two oil lamps on both sides, all with a dark rectangular plate containing the company name in Malayalam. After a few seconds, six white sunbeams fade in against the models.

In front of the said table is a lower-level table displaying two golden oil lamps and three sets of fruits.
