“From Surdas, Raskhan to Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, several sages and spiritual poets have vividly described the beauty of Vrindavan and the 'leelas' of Lord Krishna in their work which is an invaluable heritage for generations to come,” Malini said.

"Lord Krishna commanded me to serve and take care of Mathura. So, I'm the parliamentarian from this place and blessed to be doing such wonderful work. This book, 'Chal Mann Vrindavan', is very close to me," she said.

"All the poets who have written about their 'leelas' of Radha-Krishna...a lot of research on them is an important part of this book. When you read this book, you'll feel as if you have entered Braj," she added.
