1st logo (October 29, 1965)	2nd Logo (June 24, 1966)	3rd Logo (February 16, 1968-March 19, 1971)

1st logo (October 29, 1965)

Visuals: There is a view of a mosque which was zoomed in, and it starts zooming out. After twenty-five seconds, it stopped zooming. The company name doesn't appear.

Technique: Live-action.

Audio: A one-note piano sample, and then followed by the woman singing throughout the logo.

Availability: Only seen on Pilpli Sahib.

2nd Logo (June 24, 1966)

Visuals: Essentially a different still shot of a mosque, which stays static for 17 seconds. Like the last logo, the company name doesn't appear.

Technique: A live-action still.

Audio: Same as the previous logo.

Availability: Seen on Bharia Mela.

3rd Logo (February 16, 1968-March 19, 1971)

Visuals: The logo starts with yet another still shot of the Badshahi Mosque. The company name in Urdu then wipes in from right to left after a while. The text eventually fades out.

Variants:

On Badul Da Vera, the logo is red-tinted due to film conditions. The text also fades in when the music starts.
On Baba Dina, the angle is different and the text transition is replaced with just the fade out.

Technique: Wiping effects.

Audio: Same as the previous logos.

Audio Variant: On Baba Dina, it is silent.

Availability: Seen on Mela Do Din Da, Badul Da Vera and Baba Dina.
