Shantketan Films

Logo (6 November 1981-19 May 1995)
Visuals: It starts off with a stock space background with faint galaxies passing by. After about 15 seconds, a stylized "SKF" in white appears from the bottom of the screen and travels to the center of the screen. The "SKF" clones several times and about halfway through, A hand-drawn globe apears on the top portion of the screen and places itself above the "SKF". A hand doing a hand sign appears in front of the globe, which causes the "SKF" clones to stop appearing, along with the company's name "Shantketan Films" in a white, curvy font appearing below the hand and globe. The space background fades away, and a set of sunrays appear behind the hand. Lastly, it zooms in for half almost a second.

Variants:
 * On  Maa , the company name is now displayed as "Shantketan Film Combines". The logo is also completely redone.
 * On  Policewala Gunda , The company's name has been reverted back to "Shantketan Films".

Technique: Likely scanimate and traditional animation for the original logo, Scanimate animation and live action for Maa and onwards.

Audio: Depends on the variant.
 * Shradhanjali: It starts off with a few ascending vibraphone notes, followed by a dreamy synthesized tune when the "SKF" is first shown, which gets more dramatic as more elements appear in the logo. When the text appears, a dramatic chorus with bells ringing is heard.
 * Bandhan Kuchchey Dhaagon Ka - Policewala Gunda: We first hear a tampura rolling in the background, along with multiple synthesized glissandos when the "SKF" is first shown, and a melody made by a woodwind instrument when the company's name appears.
 * Maa: The fanfare cuts off abruptly when it reaches near the end.

Availability: The original 1981 logo was seen on Shradhanjali, Bandhan Kuchchey Dhaagon Ka and Hukumat, while the later logos were seen on Elaan E Jung, Tahalka, Maa and Policewala Gunda.
