Akshay was a noted contributor to the Bharati newspaper and also editor for some time. His first poem, Bharat, was published in 1868. His long poem, Bharat Gatha, narrating the history of India from ancient times up to Sepoy Mutiny, was published in 1895. However, his longest poem Udasini, published in 1875, earned him considerable recognition and praise.[citation needed]
Akshay was married to Sarat Kumari (Basu) Chowdhurani,[1] who was also a poet and journalist.
Rabindranath loved to discuss high level literature with Akshay. Both Akshay and his wife participated in literary discussions that were held in a garden of the Thakur Bari; the garden was later named Nandan Kanan by Akshay.
Rabindranath Tagore referred to help received from Akshay in his own book titled My Reminiscences.
