Rahul Sinha scored 52% in Class 10, failed the IIT entrance exam three times and could not clear the IIM entrance exam.

He cleared the exam and was selected as an SDM in Bihar on February 2, 2019, after a nearly 20-year journey.
Mahesh Bhatt, a filmmaker who began his career in the 1970s, found his way into the spotlight in the 1980s with the semi-autobiographical film Arth, which delved into his troubled marriage and extramarital affair. Throughout his career, Mahesh frequently drew inspiration from his own life experiences, creating semi-autobiographical films. However, the examination of his relationship with his son, Rahul Bhatt, remained limited to his perspective as a son, never portrayed on celluloid.
Rahul Bhatt, born towards the end of Mahesh Bhatt's marriage with his first wife in the early 1980s, often referred to himself as a "super bastard child." He believed that despite being legally married to his mother, Mahesh never fulfilled the paternal responsibilities that come with having a child. Growing up, Rahul felt ignored by his father and was burdened with the perception that his parents' marriage was unstable.
Despite their emotional differences, Mahesh recognized that they shared a common experience of growing up without a father.
