He penned several books ranging across several genres. His biography ‘Manabatara Mahatirtha’, published in 2012, got him the prestigious Sahitya Akademi Award. This apart, he authored two other biographies (Paramahansa Ramakrushna and Rashtranirmata Nehru), two children literature books (Deshapremi Swami Vivekananda and Babasaheb Ambedkar), four short story collections, two novels (Pratidhwani and Echharama Putra) and a prose (Vedantara Swara).
