In 1867, Gunjikar became the first editor of the monthly Wiwidha Dnyan Wistar (विविधज्ञानविस्तार)which was founded with the objective of disseminating information on varied topics, including sciences, biographies, literary criticisms, and philosophical/ethical ideas. He stayed in that position for seven years to turn the magazine into a prestigious monthly. His proficiency in Sanskrit, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Bengali, and English languages helped him in his editorial and literary works. His articles included ones on Marathi poetry, Marathi grammar, and Marathi as a language.He also invented a Marathi shorthand script. Gunjikar became the first historic novelist in Marathi literature when he wrote the novel Mochangad (मोचनगड) in 1871. The novel vividly describes life in Maharashtra in the first half of the 17th century. He died before he could finish his second historic novel Godawari (गोदावरी) pertaining to Portuguese rule in Goa. (en)
