Sony fireworks.."street guys" was good shell....maybe SONY VINAYAGA is good for aerial shells only.

Sony fireworks.."laser track" was good...

the other items of sony and other brands were waste of money in my opinion.....

Ya the quality of the other one is not good, But for me the important thing was that Rajukanna fireworks (2nd video) and Low break shell (Sky Boomers; gold) in last video by SRI KUMAR fireworks were vintage as these companies no more exists...

Sri Kumar fireworks (LOTUS brand) for e.g is for a change situated in KARNAL district of state Haryana rather than Sivakasi....You see it tells me that either the company couldnt cope up with increasing pressure from Sivakasi or the 2nd reason for closure may be that the climate here in North India is not suitable for large scale manufacturing....For fireworks we require low moisture and low rainfall which is possible in Sivakasi and not in Nrth India

Thank you for the posting and video. If you find the time, it would be interesting to see how the three-inch shells are sold and packaged in India. For example, are they supplied with a mortar and packaged six to a box.
The low breaks and malfunctioning shells from the company that no longer exist may be the end result of them trying to speed up assembly in an effort to stay competitive with other companies. This is commonly seen even with fireworks from China sometimes. When malfunctions occur with larger fireworks the results of trouble are increased. There is an organization in United States trying to organize all the importers of fireworks into United States to have their fireworks inspected to meet certain quality standards to prevent poorly made fireworks from entering United States. I will eventually make a video about the subject . Here a link to their website.

As I discussed in a previous post, around that same time here in my area of United States in the late 90’s when the green string wrapped firecrackers were being imported from India, the distributor was also selling Indian Flash Salutes. If I remember correctly, they went up to 5 or 6 inch. I liked them because they did not include Titanium. Most salutes coming out of China have Titanium, I heard adding this Titanium may be an effort to classify the salute more towards a special effect shell as opposed to a salute. Transportation of salutes has recently become a problem because they are now classified to the more restrictive 1.1 category. Ways to keep them classified to the least restrictive 1.3 are mixing them in with color shells at various percentages or just calling them something other than salutes
