His storytelling captivates readers, effortlessly elucidating complex concepts like the Law of Karma through relatable situational examples, allowing readers to absorb profound theories without feeling lectured. His notable works include epics such as Abhyudaya, Mahasamar, and Todo, Kara Todo; novels like Vasudeva, Abhigyaan, and Aatmdaan; and satirical pieces such as "Paanch Absurd Upanyaas" and "Aashriton ka Vidroh." Kohli excels in exploring human relationships, depicting a diverse range of characters from everyday individuals to complex figures like Duryodhan and spiritual icons like Rama and Krishna. His emotional narratives can evoke deep feelings, while his epics leave readers in awe. Kohli's works reflect both the realities and ideals of life, asserting the timeless nature of human thought and behavior, promising to convey India's enduring message globally through translations.
