[2] Born into an aristocratic Bengali family, Rai spent several years in Santiniketan for his schooling.

That association led to the making of a film, The Light of Asia, which he co-directed with Franz Osten.

While making his third film, Prapancha Pash, he met and fell in love with Devika Rani, a great-grandniece of the Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore.

Ashok Kumar and Mukherjee made a bid to revive Bombay talkies and produced one big hit in Mahal.
