Dinakaran was founded in 1977 by K. P. Kandasamy after he split from Dina Thanthi owned by his father-in-law S. P. Adithanar during the split of All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam from Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam.[6] In 2005, the newspaper was acquired from K. P. K. Kumaran by Kalanithi Maran's Sun Network.[2]

Dinakaran is published from 12 cities in India namely Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore, Madurai, Mumbai, New Delhi, Nagercoil, Pondicherry, Salem, Tiruchirappalli, Tirunelveli and Vellore. As of 2014, the newspaper has a circulation of 1,215,583.[3]

In May 2006, Dinakaran published the results of a series of opinion polls which showed politician M. K. Stalin having a greater approval rate than his elder brother M. K. Azhagiri to succeed Karunanidhi as the chief of Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam. As a result, the Dinakaran office at Madurai was fire bombed killing three employees.[7] This led to the resignation of Central Minister Dayanidhi Maran, brother of Kalanidhi Maran from the Union Cabinet.
