In his book RadhaKrsna

Sunil Gangopadhyay did not treat Krsna and Radha as god and goddess. He described them as common ordinary humans just like us. His description of the love between Radha and Krsna therefore had sensual connotations following the custom of many literary publications of the past like Jayadeva's Gitagovinda and many Padabali Kirtanas.

However, we have to remember that Krsna is the Param Brahma that is the Supreme Spirit as defined in the Hindu Dharma Shastras. Shrimati Radha is his consort or his Shakti that is power. The Prema that is love between them is devotional and spiritual love. Krsna and Radha's devotional love plays are the Rasa Lila of Bhagavan Shri Krsna and his Shakti Radha.
