In 1955 Gita Press published Mahabharata in Hindi in six parts and since then 4.75 lakh books have been published. The price of each part will be Rs 400 and there will be 1,072 pages in first part, 960 in second, 832 in third, 1,168 in fourth, 800 in fifth, 1,184 in sixth and 1,232 pages in seventh part," he said. Each part will have eight pictures based on the stories described in the book," he said. We will publish 2,000 copies of each part of the book so there will be total 14,000 copies initially. The shlokas in Sanskrit will be in Telugu script and tika (meaning) of the shloka written below the sholka will be in Telugu language. The people who know Telugu will be able to read it," Tripathi said. Most probably the first part of the book will be in market in 15 days. "There will be 7 khands (part) of the book in the form of separate books and 800 copies of first part is complete. Now the press has decided to finally publish the Mahabharata in Telugu. But due to high work pressure, we were not able to publish it. "For the last 6-7 years two scholars were translating the Mahabharata in Telugu voluntarily and it was completed a few years back. The Gita Press is already publishing 1,800 types of books in 15 languages including Urdu. "The process (of bringing out Telugu version) is underway and most probably the book will be in the market within 15 days," Production Manager, Gita Press, Lal Mani Tripathi said. The world's largest publisher of Hindu religion books- the Gita Press in Gorakhpur - has decided to publish the Mahabharata in Telugu to benefit non-Hindi and non-Sanskrit speaking people.
