Get selected value from relative date slicer.

I have Relative date slicer and I want to pick what is selected in drop down.

Is it possible?
Example – Suppose slicer have following value following value – I want to pick weeks.

Dynamic title =
var _max = maxx(allselected(dim_calendar),dim_calendar[Date]) + 1
var _min = minx(allselected(dim_calendar),dim_calendar[Date])
var prefix = IF(_max -1 > TODAY() && _min < TODAY() || _max -1 == _min, "this", IF(_max -1> TODAY(), "next", "last"))
var days_diff = DATEDIFF(_min, _max, DAY)
var suffix = IF(MOD(YEARFRAC(_min, _max),1) == 0, "year", IF(days_diff >= 7 && MOD(days_diff, 7) == 0, "week", IF(MOD(YEARFRAC(_min, _max)*12,1) == 0, "month", "day")))
var date_diff = IF(suffix == "year", DATEDIFF(_min, _max, YEAR), IF(suffix == "month", DATEDIFF(_min, _max, MONTH), IF(suffix == "week", DATEDIFF(_min, _max, WEEK), DATEDIFF(_min, _max, DAY))))
var final_text = IF(prefix == "this", prefix & " " & suffix, prefix & " " & ABS(date_diff) & " " & suffix & "s")
return "Text " & final_text

@madman Thank you so much for the code; it helps to catch the text on the relative date slicer, brilliant!

@mansiluthra12 m You can get the range in var

 

measure =
var _max = maxx(allselected('Date'),'Date'[Date])
var _min = minx(allselected('Date'),'Date'[Date])

return

Actually , I dont need the range between the dates , I need to have text what is selected in filter(like days, weeks,years),as based on selection I will be using it in other measure
