Will probate in regional language

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 21 December 2017 This query is : Resolved
Hello experts
My father expired in 2015 , he had registered a will beforehand. I am the executor of the will. At the time of the will preparation he was in IIT kharagpur and the will is in Bengali ( our family mother tongue). We have a property in Mumbai and now I want to transfer the property in my mothers name as per the will.
The will is probated from the district court of Midnapore west Bengal.

My query is ,as the main contents of the will are in Bengali will it be accepted in Mumbai as a valid doc or do I need to go through some additional procedures. Your advice is highly needed.
