Apte had started his writing career while he was studying in New English School. Gopal Ganesh Aagarkar had translated Shakespeare’s Hamlet into Marathi under the title Vikarvilasit. Apte’s critical article on it was published then in the journal called ‘Nibandhchandrika.’ His first novel Madhali Sthiti was published in the magazine ‘Pune Vaibhav’ while he was studying in college. The novel, based on Reynolds’s ‘The Mysteries of London,’ depicted the contemporary social scene in Pune. He started a weekly magazine called “Karamnook” in 1890 to create social awareness through entertainment. He published most of his writing in it throughout his life. He also included in the weekly different items like scientific information, historical stories, health advice, travelogues, short plays, poems, short comic plays, anecdotes and cartoons. He also offered his extensive cooperation to other magazines like ‘Dnyaanprakash,’ ‘Sudharak,’ ‘Manoranjan’ and ‘Nibandhchandrika.’ He published in ‘Karamnook’ his famous novel Pan Lakshaat Kon Gheto in 1890.
