A legacy of imagination and storytelling for children.

At Donmedia Publications, we are dedicated to creating engaging magazines, books, and illustrated stories for children and young readers. Our passionate editorial team of more than 15 creative professionals works together to develop imaginative, educational, and entertaining content designed to inspire young minds.

Every month, we produce four vibrant children’s magazines — Applebees, Kuttyulakam, Tell Me More, and Kinder La. Each issue is carefully crafted in-house, featuring original stories, colourful illustrations, comics, puzzles, and educational activities that encourage curiosity, creativity, and learning.

In addition to our magazines, we publish standalone books and create illustrated stories and comics for newspapers and publishing houses across India, the United States, the Middle East, and Singapore.

Our Visionary Founder

Venu Variath

Donmedia Publications was founded by the renowned children’s author and journalist Venu Variath, whose vision was to nurture imagination and curiosity in young readers around the world.

Venu authored 33 children’s storybooks and 50 comic books, and served as one of the original editors of Poompatta, South India’s first children’s magazine.

Inspired by this legacy, Donmedia Publications continues to create meaningful stories, magazines, and books that entertain, educate, and spark imagination in the next generation of readers.
