Logo: On a rotating field, we see a girl laying down. The sun then rises, and once it has fully risen, LEAD KINDLY LIGHT PRAKASH forms under the girl and the girl rises with what appears to be a candle in one hand and throws petals with the other hand.
FX/SFX: The field rotating, the light, the girl and the texts. Pretty good special effects for the time!
