Pudhari is a popular Marathi daily, printed in three centres[2] and distributed in Maharashtra, Goa and North Karnataka. It is the leader in Kolhapur and Western Maharashtra and the third-largest Marathi newspaper daily in the entire state of Maharashtra.[1][3] Alongside Satyawadi, it is one of the two oldest surviving newspapers in the state.[4]
History

In 2016, Pudhari's publisher, Pudhari Publications, invested in new colour printing and design technologies.[2]

Some years ago as Kolhapur's leading Marathi daily, Pudhari, was attempting to make inroads into Pune, it ran into some fierce resistance by the Sharad Pawar-family-owned Sakal group of newspapers. Pudhari's young owner-editor, Yogesh Jadhav, had then told me rather wryly, 'When we were in school, the history books told us that Pune had once upon a time belonged to the Peshwas. Now our children will grow up thinking Pune is owned by the Pawars!'

Lokmat and Sakal lead the pack in Maharashtra. The next 3 players, Punya Nagari, Pudhari and Loksatta are the challengers. They are unable to match the delivery of the Top 2, but their inclusion (at card rates), by way of partial substitution, does improve delivery, as well as the efficiency of the media plan. [...] Lokmat and Sakal unquestionably dominate the 'Desh' region, while Pudhari, Punya Nagari and Tarun Bharat make the challengers list. Their readership is significant, but cannot replace that of the leaders.

"Satyawadi and Pudhari, the only two surviving news-papers from the Princely past were more of 'loyalist'. [...] Pudhari launched as a weekly in 1937 by the Kolhapur news Association, was turned into a daily in 1939. Due to financial crises, the association handed it over to G. G. Jadhav in 1943 (Pudhari 7-3-43).
