Logo[]
(May 1988): On a dark background, we see two candles and the silhouette of a statue, all over a table with a white blanket. Behind the table, we see orange smoke. Then, some lights are turned up, revealing that the silhouette is Durga (with a row of orange flowers) riding a tiger. Below the tiger there are three orange flowers, and around the right candle there are some vegetables. After a few seconds, the logo freezes, and Durga throws a beam to the screen, à la the Balakrishna Movies logo, to form the text "SHAM RALHAN" when it disappears. The text is below the row of flowers. Then, below the mentioned text, "PRODUCTIONS" appears in a blur effect left-to-right.
Music/Sounds[]
A tanpura note, followed by an Indian choral tune. (a stock piece, used in many logos from India and Nepal, e.g. Manish Films, Solila Productions, Kalatmak Productions, etc.). Once the logo freezes, the opening theme from Jyoti Bane Jwala plays until the logo ends.
Scare Factor[]
High to nightmare. The music, the dark statue, the creepy choral tune and the orange smoke, among other reasons, can scare someone. If we include the part of the logo when the scene freezes, with a lyra strum and a dramatic fanfare, the logo could be considered one of the scariest logos.
