Standing at 5’8″ (172 cm), R Nait pursued his higher education at Guru Nanak Dev University in Amritsar, where he nurtured his love for music.

After completing his education, R Nait moved to Mohali and briefly worked in a refrigerator manufacturing factory but soon left to fully focus on his music career.
