Background

Qazi Films (also known as Gullisman Films) is a Pakistani in-house production company located at Lahore, Punjab Province, Pakistan. Its first film was Mukhra Chan Warga, which was released on 1969, and received a 2001 remake.

1st logo (1969-1995)

Logo: We start off with a view of dark clouds, but it suddenly rips to a mosque. The logo stands still aside from shaking, until the last second when the ripping animation reversed. The company name doesn't appear.

Variant: The logo would usually be tinted in different colors. It was originally in black & white.

Trivia: The mosque in the logo is the Kaaba, a mosque in Saudi Arabia where people pray.

FX/SFX: The ripping animations and the shaking.

Music/Sounds: Loud thunder noises accompanied by a man singing an Islamic hymn.

Music/Sound Variant: On Vada Thanedar, a different Islamic hymn is heard, accompanied by a calming organ.

Availability: Seen on some Pakistani films during the era, such as Mukhra Chan Warga (1969) (which was the company's first film), Maali, Maa Ray Qanoon, Jabroo, Do Nishan, Commander, Loha, and Golden Girl.

Editor’s Note: None.

2nd logo (1973-1974)

Logo: It's just a mosque. The company name doesn't appear.

Variant: A extended and colored version exists on Namak Haram.

FX/SFX: All live-action.

Music/Sounds: Same as the previous logo, but it's just the man singing a different religious song. On the Namak Haram variant, some kind of xylophone notes were played at the beginning.

Availability: Seen on Jeera Blade and Namak Haram.

Editor's Note: None.
