Daily Thanthi was launched by Tamil actors Prasanna, Sneha Prasanna and Sivakarthikeyan. It was inaugurated by Bala Aditya, Director of Dina Thanthi group.
"I am glad to bring Daily Thanthi to the UAE. I have been raised here, hence the introduction of this daily to the country is very close to my heart," Sneha Prasanna was quoted as saying by the Khaleej Times.
"The Tamil population in the UAE has definitely grown over the years. It is evident with the rise of Tamil radio stations, so I think it a good idea to present a newspaper too," Sneha said.

A 12 page launch edition was printed and distributed among guests. The newspaper will be published from the Khaleej Times office here.
Daily Thanthi often known as Dina Thanthi is published in major Indian cities of Chennai, Coimbatore, Trichy, Bangalore and Mumbai.
