DTNext

More than seven decades ago, Si. Pa. Aditanar – inspired by popular Western publications - found the need for a Tamil daily that would reach the masses through engaging content and easy language. In November 1942, he launched Dina Thanthi, which rapidly grew to become the largest circulated newspaper in Tamil Nadu, and also the 5th largest read newspaper in the country. November 2015 saw history recreate itself with the launch of a new English language daily DT NEXT from this leading media house. For over 75 years Daily Thanthi has informed, entertained and enlightened you with credible news in Tamil. And from 1st of November 2015, you get news in English as well.

Our news, lifestyle and entertainment daily offers the promise of more, built on the bedrock of trust and familiarity that Daily Thanthi brings to your front door, every morning. We aim to strengthen the bond with our regular reader, and look to forge new ties with new members of the household. This product aims to go beyond print and serve as a powerful and unique cross-platform trifecta that will seamlessly straddle traditional print content and be able to push the same across a digital medium that will organically create a community based on shared interests, trust, and celebration of our local culture.
