Debonair (founded 1971) is an Indian men's magazine, originally modeled after Playboy.[1]
The magazine, best known for its topless female centerfolds, was launched by Ashok Row Kavi and Anthony Van Braband.[2] Under editor Derek Bose, Debonair was reformatted to remove nudity and target a younger demographic in 2005.[3]
