The son of famous film director Mahesh Bhatt and Kiran Bhatt, Rahul gained unwitting notoriety in 2009 following revelations that David Headley, an accused in the 2008 Mumbai attacks, had befriended him. In an investigative report by PBS, Rahul Bhatt was described as a B-movie actor asking for favors to reveal more details about Headley. He was a contestant on Bigg Boss 4 in 2010.
