Jairaj's effective dialogue delivery, and experience in Telugu theatre made him an instant choice to play the roles of the sword wielding Rajputs. He played the characters of Amar Singh Rathore [1957], Prithviraj Chauhan[1959], and Maharana Pratap[1960] among notable films. He also essayed the roles of Shah Jahan [1947], Tipu Sultan [1959] and Haider Ali [1962] with equal aplomb. His other memorable portrayals have been in the films like ‘Sassi Punnu’ [1947], ‘HatimTai’[1956], ‘Chandrashekar Azad’[1963] ‘Durga Das’[1964] among others.

'Humaari Baat' (1943), 'Singaar' (1949), 'Amar Kahani' (1949), 'Rajput' (1951), 'Resham' (1952) as her hero, and one of them, 'Lal Kunwar' (1952} as second lead. In 1952, he produced and directed his own film, Sagar, which was not very well received by the audiences. But his commitment to cinema remained undisputed.[5]
