History and profile

Vanitha was launched in 1975[3][4] as a monthly, but turned into a fortnightly in 1987. The magazine was founded by Annamma Mathew, wife of K.M. Mathew, a woman who has contributed immensely in the fields of social service, cookery, journalism and literature. Vanitha is published in Malayalam[3] and launched a Hindi edition in 1997.[5] Although its name translates to "woman" in Malayalam, it includes articles on a variety of topics, and is not strictly a women's magazine.

Vanitha is owned and published by MM Publications Ltd. from Kottayam.[4] MM Publications Ltd. is part of Malayala Manorama Group.[6] In addition to being released twice a month, Vanitha also includes special double issues for Onam, Easter, New Year's Day and Christmas.

Between July and December 2000 Vanitha was the best-selling magazine in India with a circulation of 3,82,027 copies.[6] In 2012, the Malayalam edition of the magazine had a readership of over of 2.27 million, making it the highest read magazine in India.[7]
