Vanitha(meaning Woman) is a Malayalam magazine from the house of Manorama, which provides wholesome articles for the entire family. Yes, it is a womans magazine, it has far better content than all the Womans Eras, Feminas and Cosmopolitans. Worthwhile content. While the latter is more focussed on peddling expensive stuff to people and making us feel inferior for not being able to buy them, Vanitha is more content - intensive.
Yes, there is film gossip, short stories, novellas, Q&A columns on health, family, children and sex like any other magazine, but it also has inspiring articles about real life achievers, focus on women entrepreneurs, articles written by luminaries of Kerala and investigative articles.
Priced at Rs. 30, it is a fortnightly, which is available at newspaper stands or subscribed to online(print and digital). its also worth mentioning, Vanitha is the highest circulated magazine in India.(not India Today, not Readers Digest). This itself is a good indicator of its popularity and its worthiness.
