Hi Anand,
It sounds like the REST API's featured feed endpoint https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/#!/Feed/aggregatedFeed provides what you're looking for.
For example: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/feed/featured/2017/04/06 (see the content under the "mostread" key).
Under the hood, titles are obtained from the Pageview API https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Analytics/PageviewAPI and then supplementary information for our desired titles is obtained from the REST API's page summary endpoint https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/#!/Page_content/get_page_summary_title. That would be the easiest way to go if you'd like to go in a slightly different direction from what's provided in our featured feed endpoint.
If you'd like, you can view the implementation for the "mostread" section of our aggregated feed endpoint here:

Please note that as of now the REST API endpoints are officially designated as unstable.
Best, Michael

Hi Team,
Thanks for the great api provided for all the wiki info. I am looking for a combination of right parameters which will return me most viewed pages with the page url, article snippet, thumbnail image url. Hope you can help with this.
