Gaurav was quoted as follows by Deccan Chronicle on the event of World Book Day 2018:

"I think reading is an effective way of introspecting how you perceive reality and imagination. As an author, you get to know what other authors have done better and it helps hone skills. Whoever said, he/she is a proud non-reader of books is living in oblivion. It [reading] not only opens up one’s mind to a wider array of things as well, but is also a welcome relief from the monotony of the mundane world."

In July 2018, Sharma authored The Indian Story of an Author, a creative nonfiction book. This book is seen as a form of symbolic protest as it was created after Gaurav faced several rejections from the publishers for his novel, God of the Sullied.

Gaurav's God of the Sullied (historical fiction) was published in September 2018 by New Delhi-based Think Tank Books and became Amazon India bestseller. Gaurav himself founded Think Tank Books, a publishing house based in New-Delhi.

In January 2020, Gaurav came up with Long Live the Sullied, a sequel to God of the Sullied that concluded The Sullied Warrior Duology. In September 2020, Gaurav translated and published Charitranayak Eklavya and Mahanayak Eklavya – Hindi version of God of the Sullied and Long Live the Sullied respectively.

In July 2022, Gaurav's first romance novel Diary of a Whimsical Lover was released. The book is based on the theme of unrequited love.
