1st Logo (July 31, 2009-April 7, 2022)

Visuals: The screen pans through various black shapes and zoom out to reveal that the shapes are the text "MADDOCK". As teh camera is in a comfortable distance, the "A" gets squished by the "M" and "DDOCK", turning it into a crudely-drawn blue star. Underneath, "FILMS" in spaced-out letters fades in letter-by-letter. The logo ends on an iris zoom-out transition which zooms into the star.

Technique: CGI.

Audio: A stock heroic fanfare (this is the same stock music heard in the 2005 Wiseau-Films logo), which is cut off by a loud bang that is heard once the "A" gets squished, and a creaking sound as the star appears. A piano is then played once each letter of "FILMS" fades in.

Audio Variant: On Badlapur, the remaining last note of the Eros International fanfare is heard on the very start of the logo.

Availability: It first debuted on Love Aaj Kal and was last seen on Dasvi.

2nd Logo (November 25, 2022-)

Visuals: On a black background, a deep pink "A" is drawn through some deep pink dots, which later changes into a solid, paintbrush-written version of it, which glows. It later shrinks as the letters "M" and "DDOCK", both in Verdana, then flip in to the "A"'s left and the right, respectively. "FILMS" in Myriad then appears underneath letter-by-letter as an underline draws beneath "FILMS". The camera then zooms in through the "D".

Technique: 2D animation.

Audio: A two-verse Hindi chant sung by a man, along with a reversed cymbal crash at the end.

Availability: First seen on Bhediya, and can be seen on their recent films such as Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya.
