ACK Media, the leading Entertainment and Education Company for children, is launching Suppandi 48, a new magazine based on its most popular character – Suppandi.
Suppandi is one of the very first characters to have appeared in Tinkle (Tinkle sells around 2.5 million copies per year – India’s No.1 English magazine for children) and has been a popular figure amongst children and adults alike, for almost three decades! He is all about proactive thinking and literal obedience and has a natural talent to bungle everything! That’s what we call the ‘essence of Suppandi!’
“Suppandi stories have been a regular in Tinkle. Seeing Suppandi’s popularity and on many of his fans’ requests, we decided to launch Suppandi 48, a magazine completely for Suppandi!” said Ms Savita Pai, VP, Product Management. “We did a test launch in July, 2010, the response of which was stupendous! Thus, we decided to publish Suppandi 48 as a quarterly.”
The stories in Suppandi 48 will concentrate on different aspects in Suppandi’s life – like ‘What does Suppandi do during after hours?’ ‘Who are his family and friends?’ ‘What are his hobbies and interests?’ The unknown life of Suppandi – that’s what Suppandi 48 aims to reveal to its readers!
Suppandi 48 has several other sections – like insane brain teasers that will make you roll with laughter, wacky puzzles to stimulate your creative side and senseless facts to make you wonder!
In short, Suppandi 48 is 100% fun and entertainment! The second issue will be available at bookstores and newsstands around 30th Oct, 2010.
