Hi Laksmi,I would check that the rollers on the top sprocket of your Elmo are not sticking,maybe loosening a screw or a drop of light oil, also check the "head presser", the little plastic moulding that is situated below the gate and above the soundheads as this has a tendency to wear and show up on subsequent viewings, this is for the emulsion side scratch which yours appears to be. Check also the lower sprocket guide for wear.I have had the same problems as have many other users Laksmi, in my case, I cut away the plastic and fitted rollers to reduce the risk of scratches on my Elmo's, which did the trick.Make yourself a loop of film with no marks on it and run it for an hour just to check.
