First let me express my opinion first : In our life we require a minimum amount of good reading which also should include ’’romantic stuff ’’ as well! secondly the ’’romantic’ does not necessarily mean ’’vulgar’’ or ’’cheap’’ After these two you are now welcome to the world of Swathi a fantastic telugu magazine! It covers all topics . like religion(bhakti), politics(comments) health tips comedy , stories, jokes, lot of cartoons, serials and filmi stuff and and many many more. The salient feature this magazine is that Some of the short stories/serials include romantic stuff which you can classify on the ’’mild to moderate’’ and these serials/stories breath life into you especially if you are young. But Swathi is not these alone! It caters to all kinds of reader by including serious analysis on political events and religious topics and even for kids. Now if you follow evolution of telugu magazines over last two decades, there was a wave of Sex/romantic/thriller and there was big competition among weeklies. This war as I remember was started by Bhoomi (thulasi dalam) sometime many readers felt that contents of these magazines were ’’cheap’’ in many cases. But as time passed now things are more matured and stabilized. But as I remember Swathi maintained it’s own yardstick of qualities and I believe they adhered to that most of the times. Over all you can say that if you catch hold of the weekly swathi you will read the full contents and will not leave any thing since most of them are written in a lucid style
