He started his work life as a police sub-inspector to become one of the most esteemed actors in Indian cinema. His debut film, Rangeeli (1952), didn't gain him instant success, but Mother India, helmed by Mehboob Khan, secured his position as a prominent figure in the Indian film industry.

During a conversation with ANI, Raza Murad shared that after watching Ganga Jamuna, Raaj Kumar showered immense love for Late Dilip Kumar and to show his affection, he went to his home late at night. He said, 'He observed Ganga Jumna. What a show by Dilip saab! Following the film, he went to Diilip Saab's residence at 1:30 am. Dilip saab felt quite confused. He was curious about why Raaj Kumar had come to his house at this hour. Raaj said to him, 'Ganga Jamuna dekhne ke baad aaj mujhe pata laga ki, iss desh mein keval do actor hain, Raaj Kumar aur Dilip Kumar'. He remarked this and left.'
For the unversed, Ganga Jumna was released in 1962 and continues to be one of the most beloved films ever. The movie featured Dilip Kumar, Vyajanthimala and Nasir Khan, which focuses on two brothers who were orphans and as they mature, one turns into a police officer, while the other evolves into a gangster.
