Messrs Issardas Naoomal (India)

(1958)


Nicknames: "Comet Passing Globe", "Universal's Indian Cousin"

Logo: A crudely drawn comet rotates around a crudely drawn planet Earth, which focuses on the eastern hemisphere, three times. Rings then form around the Earth with text saying "MESSRS ISSARDAS NAOOMAL" inside it, and the words "World Rights Controller" in cursive forming above it.

FX/SFX: The comet around the Earth, and the apparition of the ring and the texts.

Music/Sounds: Three cartoony-sounding slide sound effects (one slide every time that the comet reappears after it rotates around the earth), then the opening theme of the film.

Availability: Seen only on Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi (That which runs is a vehicle).

Editor's Note: None.
