Translation

How is Pradyumna, the great general of the Vṛṣṇi family? Is He happy? And is Aniruddha, the plenary expansion of the Personality of Godhead, faring well?

Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

Is Pradyumna, the mahāratha among all the Vṛṣṇis happy? Is Aniruddha, fierce in fighting, prospering?

Purport

Pradyumna and Aniruddha are also expansions of the Personality of Godhead, and thus They are also viṣṇu-tattva. At Dvārakā, Lord Vāsudeva is engaged in His transcendental pastimes along with His plenary expansions, namely Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna and Aniruddha, and therefore each and every one of Them can be addressed as the Personality of Godhead, as it is mentioned in connection with the name Aniruddha.

Commentary (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)

Gambhīra-rayaḥ means “fierce in battle.”
