Logos[]
1st logo (1965): We see on a lighted sunburst background of red, green, yellow and white lines over a very modeled Buddha temple door-ish border and green background on its borders a statue of a female God riding on a carriage with seven white horses. The god carries the rope on the nose of the horses, and clouds are seen from the horses' hooves. and we see a beige pedestal saying "R.M. ART PRODUCTIONS", on a red, weird-like font.
2nd logo (1975-1994): On a black background, we see a silhouette. Suddenly, lights turn on to reveal the silhouette of the text, which says "R.M. ART" on the top, and "PRODUCTIONS", which is covered on a pedestal, in the bottom, all in gold, white, brown or beige. The background is black on the bottom of the screen, and the logo then shines extremely with an massive amount of lights when it's finished revealing.
Music/Sounds[]
1st logo: A triumphant fanfare, which the last note is being held following into a menacing fanfare that the triumphant one preceded it, consisting of many cymbal crashes.
2nd logo: An loud rustling sound, followed by wind, and an deep Indian voice speaking something in Hindi. A soft drum roll is heard.
Scare Factor[]
1st logo: Low to nightmare. The creepy fanfare is sure to unnerve a few, but with the overall darkness of the logo, the frozen nature, the look of the horses, and the sudden face of the God will haunt lots of Indian audiences, in particular to people who are not used to it. The quiet fanfare that precedes the menacing fanfare doesn't work either good. However, it escalates with the next logo.
2nd logo: Medium to nightmare. The loud nature of the logo, along with the rustling, the revelation of the statue, the overuse of lights and the cheesy sunburst can make many people shiver their bones on fear. Also, the fact it uses a black background in the bottom can unnerve a few. Otherwise, the scare factor on Maha Shaktishaali can go upwards from high to nightmare, due to the fact that is following the loud opening of the movie. Some people can think that it exacerbates it even further, but it's low to high for those who used to it, as the nature of the logo is still jarring.
