This is the first time, the work has been translated in any language. 18,000 shlokas and 12 chapters (skandhs) of Shrimad Bhagwat Mahapuran along with Sanskrit scholar Shridhar Maharaj's commentary will now be available in Gujarati in a set of five volumes. Each volume is of approximately 1,000 pages, and the total around 5,000 pages.
