She has published a number of books and articles both in English and Marathi language on mathematics related subjects. She is the recipient of the Vishwanath Parvati Gokhale Award 2002 for her Marathi book ''Gargi Ajun Jeevant Aahe - गार्गी अजून जिवंत आहे. '' ==Biography== Narlikar studied from the University of Bombay and received degrees of B. A.

D. degree in mathematics from the University of Bombay, 16 years after her marriage, in 1981 on the subject of Analytic Number theory. After obtaining her doctoral degree, she continued to work with TIFR from 1982-1985 as a Pool Officer in the School of Mathematics. Her teaching asssignemnts from 1982 to 1985 was for M Phil class in the Department of Mathematics in the University of Bombbay.
