Visuals: There is a starfield rapidly moving towards the right direction. Once it stops, multiple colored rays appear from different directions and travels to the bottom center of the screen. Once it does that, an explosion occurs, which transitions to a starry night with a set of snowy mountains. Then, a silhouette of a Hindu deity against a bunch of smoke slowly fades in, and then a bright light from above reveals the entire statue, which appears to be a statue of Ganesh. The text "SEVEN MOUNTAIN MOVIES" in red appears at the bottom of the statue afterward. It then fades to black.

Variant: In its later years the smoke is much fainter and the statue is in a different shading. Plus the text is white this time and in a different font.

Technique: A combination of cel animation and practical effects.

Audio: A long whoosh with two loud thunderclaps at the beginning, then a swarmandal flourish with a loud percussion theme for the second part, and the sound of a horn when the text fades in.

Availability: This was seen on Kahan Hai Kanoon, Hafta Bandh, Bomb Blast, Dance Party, and Hafta Vasuli.
