Murghan Enterprise (India)

(1974-1986)
 Nicknames:  "Murghan Statue"

 Logo:  On a dark background, we see two candles. Suddenly we see a purple smoke, and after a red smoke we see the shadow of a religious statue (supposed to be Kartikeya, also known as Murughan, who gives the name of the company), a la Saravana Films 2nd logo. The lights are turned up and we see the statue, which inside a big red circle where we can read "muRGHaN ENTERPRISE" in golden letters. The statue is also above a white circle. The circle contains an elephant with three heads (which resembles the national emblem of India) on a red background. The candles are on the right and the left of the circle with the elephant. The smoke continues moving inside the big red circle, behind the statue, witch is now yellow-orange, the color of the original fire.

Variants:

 * Dard uses a dark night with stars and galaxies moving. The Murghan logo is off-centered, because it stands more to the right.
 * Paap Aur Punya: Same as the original variant, but with a thin fog instead of the smoke.

 FX/SFX:  The smoke and the light, in addition of the stars and galaxies on Dard. None for a print of Paap Aur Punya.

 Music/Sounds:  A ominous and very sinister melody followed by a men's chorus.

 Music/Sounds Variants:   Availability:  Seen on Chor Sipahee, Gautam Govinda, Dard, Paap Aur Punya ("The Prince and the Pauper"), Wanted (Dead or Alive) and Begaana.
 * On Dard, the logo is silent.
 * On Paap Aur Punya, there's a melody with a sitar, which calms down the look of the logo.

 Editor's Note:  The nature of this logo may come off as unnerving to some. The logo from Paap Aur Punya has been frozen before being released to YouTube, so we don't have enough information to describe the FX/SFX section of this variant.
